A few comments:  Stanley Rother was murdered in 1981.   As the article states he had been warned that he had been placed on "lists" earlier that year.  He emphatically told his bishop that he had never met with any individuals known to be rebels, but they operated in the area of the mission.   Guatemala had been colonized for 350 years, yet in 1980 it was estimated that 75% of the the rural population did not know or speak the Spanish.   So Rother had translated most of the New Testament into a phonetic version of the locals language (Tutzwil), and made major efforts to broaden the evangelism by training laymen in presenting the Gospel.  These were the principal  victims in the local atrocities as the army moved into the area.  Rother had protested the entry of uniformed army members onto the mission grounds and kidnapping parishioners  who later were found dead.  The day before his death, he had taken a parishioner some distance for treatment of a gunshot would that was not healing.
