On the eve of the country’s national feast, Salvadoran Cardinal Gregorio Rosa Chavez urged peace and unity, while voicing worries that increasing political polarization is causing aftershocks caused by a “political earthquake” in the Central American nation. “The culture of confrontation and the culture of indifference prevail among us,” the cardinal said in an Aug. 5 homily at the Cathedral of San Salvador. “It is urgent to fight it with the culture of peace.” El Salvador, which means “the savior” in Spanish, celebrates the Aug. 6 feast of the Transfiguration of Christ as a national holiday , much of it centered in the capital, San Salvador.
