Ignacio Ellacuría

Abstract

November 16 marks the 20th anniversary of the murder of six jesuits, their housekeeper, and their house keeper’s daughter in El Salvador. The event galvanized members of the Society of Jesus all over the world and continues to remind many Christians of the possible costs of discipleship. Catholic Comments will devote two programs to the commemoration of this event. For this week’s podcast, Rev. Kevin Burke, S.J. discusses the intellectual legacy of Ignacio Ellacuría, one of the six Jesuits killed.
