After he retired as Archbishop he continued until his death ministering at a homeless shelter he founded in Lima. As Archbishop of Lima, he frequently clashed with Peruvian President Alberto Fujimori, demanding that the President observe human rights and democratic forms, and, at a later stage, over the President's pushing of family planning programmes.
