Saint Anthony Relic Reveal #21 - St. Maria Goretti

The embodiment of 'pure of heart'. A facilitator of countless miracles. The youngest canonized saint in the Catholic Church. The Little Saint of Great Mercy.

There are many ways to describe Saint Maria Goretti, but words can hardly describe the courage, mercy, and sanctity of this 11-year-old virgin martyr. Her story is tragic yet inspirational, and her spirit of sacrifice kept her faithful to God, even to the point of death.

Fr. Carlos Martins, the generous priest who has donated the majority of the relics coming to the Our Lady of the Angels Chapel has said that of all the saint relics he ministers with, St. Maria Goretti has by far produced the most miracles. Join Michael Gormley to find out why that's the case in our latest Relic Reveal video at St. Anthony of Padua Catholic Church!
