“In terms of that good and holy man Ben Salmon, there’s no doubt we need heroes of Peace and Love now more than ever; I pray that efforts in promoting his cause for beatification will continue to move forward. I will keep you in my prayers for that intention. Peace and blessings. Viva Cristo Rey.” Bishop Alberto Rojas, 14 December, 2019
