Oscar Arnulfo Romero
Acta numero trece de fecha ventiocho de junio del año dos mil trece
Nahuilzalco, 21 de marzo de 2,015.
Dr. Jorge Willer Patriz Castaneda
Alcalde Municipal de Nahuilzalco
The Municipal Council of Nahuizalco chaired by Dr. Jorge Willer Patriz Castaneda decreed: As a fair and deserved recognition, that Tercera Calle Poniente, of the Trinidad Neighborhood of this municipality be renamed as Calle Monsignor Oscar Arnulfo Romero. This is done as a tribute to he who has become a symbol for El Salvador for having offered his life in his struggle for those most unprotected against injustices. In turn we assume the commitment to continue governing under the principles of equality, security, justice and the common good, just as demanded by our dear martyr "Saint Romero of the Americas", who from this date will be more alive and present in the hearts of all of those from Nahuizalco.
