KALEO PHOENIX

Recorded on September 18, 2022. Welcome to Week 2 of our journey through the work of Oscar Romero and the way he preached the Good News of Jesus among the poor and oppressed of El Salvador.⁠ In this episode, we read Psalm 146:5-10 and portions of his homily from December 11, 1977. As a church family, we will continue to work for peace and justice and we will continue to strive to be beloved community. See you this evening, friends. You are loved. ⁠

Recorded September 11, 2022. Over the next 11 weeks, we'll be preaching from selected homilies by Archbishop Oscar Romero out of his book, "The Violence of Love." These selections from the sermons and writings share the message of a great holy prophet of modern times.⁠ In this episode, we are guided through Isaiah 2:1-5 by Chris Townley as he shows us the heart of Oscar Romero and how Jesus invites us to wield garden tools on the mountain. ⁠For more information about Kaleo Phoenix, visit kaleophx.com or follow us on social media @kaleophx.
