ST. MARIA GORETTI--In Garments All Red
By Fr. Godfrey Poage, C.P.
The beautiful, true story of the 11-year-old girl
who in 1902 died a martyr to preserve her purity. Her words during the
event of her attempted rape and murder expressed, above all, the desire not to
commit a sin of impurity and concern for the soul of her attacker. Her
murderer remained unrepentant for years after his crime, however, while in
prison he had a dream that Maria came to him and offered forgiveness. As a
result, he had a conversion experience which transformed him for the rest of his
life. He attended her canonization in 1950. This book describes her
virtuous life, her love of the Eucharist and more. It is a famous, popular,
classic biography!
