Saturday, 6th July, is the Optional Memorial of St Maria Goretti - Virgin and Martyr.  Saturdays are also traditionally dedicated to Our Lady.

Such a powerful story of forgiveness! St.  Maria Goretti, pray for us!

Maybe her mother could be canonized someday as well, not to mention, possibly even, Alessandro himself.
