Little is known throughout our Province about the five Pallottines who were killed in Argentina in 1976 during the military dictatorship. It would be good to know them, pray for them and pray for those responsible for their deaths.

The 4th of July 1976 was a Sunday.  In the early hours of the morning of that day, five people were brutally murdered; they were the members of the Pallottine Community of Saint Patrick’s Parish, Belgrano, in the city of Buenos Aires, Fr. Peter Dufau, Fr. Alfie Leaden, Fr. Alfie Kelly and two seminarians, Salvador Barbeito and Emilio Barletti. Just like Jesus, they died tragically, victims of the violence that comes from the misuse of power.
