The Redemptorist Vice-Province of Manila posted on Facebook:
Today (July 11), we commemorate the 38th anniversary of the disappearance of Rev. Fr. Rudy Romano, CSsR, a Redemptorist priest who fought for human rights during martial law. Fr. Romano worked closely with the poor and openly spoke against the injustices during those dark moments in our country. Like Fr. Romano, may we have the zeal and courage to uphold human rights, especially for the poor and marginalized.
