Nelson Rutilio Lemus Chávez (10 November 1960 – 12 March 1977) was a Salvadoran Catholic who was active during the 20th century unrest in the country.
He was an active participant in his local parish and was often involved in helping others to read the Bible.[1][2] He was also the one that would ring the church bells for Mass and helped his local parish priest.[3] Lemus was slain in 1977 on a dirt road amidst sugarcane fields en route to Mass alongside Manuel Solórzano and the Jesuit priest Rutilio Grande García after three Salvadoran soldiers ambushed them.[1][4][5]
Lemus was beatified in 2022 in San Salvador alongside his two companions and the slain priest Cosma Spessotto.[2][6]
