President Barack Obama's visit in March to the tomb of the late Oscar Romero, the martyred archbishop who was assassinated 31 years ago, is getting mixed reviews from US commentators.
Archbishop Nathaniel Makoto Uematsu, primate of Nippon Sei Ko Kai (The Anglican Communion in Japan), said March 22 that while there are no Anglican churches in most of the areas affected by the March 11 magnitude-9 earthquake, "it is the NSKK's desire to stand with all people there and to do whatever we can to support them."
