Most people look at St Maria Goretti as a poor victim and this ends up discouraging people to follow her.
Br. Vincent shows us the true side of this fascinating saint which actually attracts us to immitate her!
How could a little girl’s strength be a model not just for women but men and soldiers?
----------------------------------------------------------
PRAYER TO ST. MARIA GORETTI
O St. Maria Goretti who, strengthened by God’s grace, did not hesitate even at the age of 11 to shed your blood and sacrifice life itself to defend your virginal purity, look graciously on the unhappy human race which has strayed far from the path of eternal salvation.
Teach us all, and especially youth, with what courage and promptitude we should flee, for the love of JESUS, anything that could offend Him or stain our souls with sin.
Obtain for us from Our Lord victory in temptation, comfort in the sorrows of life, and the grace which we earnestly beg of Thee (mention intention), and may we one day enjoy with Thee the imperishable glory of Heaven. Amen. (Pray an Our Father, Hail Mary and Glory be.)
St. Maria Goretti, pray for us! (Feast day on July 6th.)

Wow! this is so much more powerful than the story I was told as a child. I didn't know she lived for 20 hours after her attack nor that they operated Without anesthesia!! And her care for Alessandro's soul, and her trust in our Bless Mother, explains why she was truly a saint.
I am so grateful that Father is retelling this tragic but inspiring story, in an age where the young people of this world are being bombarded with evil, and inundated with false teachings about chastity, celibacy and abstinence.
I know it will inspire people to be courageous in their pursuit of holiness, and strengthen them to call out to the Lord and All of the Saints to pray for the grace to remain pure, and to stay faithful and obedient to our good and loving God.
Thank you and God Bless You!
Pray for us Saints Maria Gorretti and Mother Mary.

Father, I already knew the story of St. Maria Goretti but the way you told the story, I was glued to the screen. You have a wonderful gift.
I agree… May God bless him more!
Brave St Maria, pray for our young people!
Her absolute forgiveness was stronger than any evil or her own death! I know that I'll never have it. I'm a coward. I think if I forgive, they'll just stomp all over me again. You see, I run on fear, and I'm never at peace. That way, I know, I never will win. Sad. I'm obstinate. Pray for me.
A great first step to forgiving is accepting your inability to forgive! Take it to Our Blessed Mother, she will do it for you. Br. Vincent's next video will deal about this more profoundly.
We are praying for you.
@brothernimishcoelho Our Blessed Mother Mary is our (my) best friend. I know if I keep her maternal friendship, I will be preserved in Jesus, Our Lord’s love. Thank you for praying for me.
Pls don't give up trying... think about the words in the Our Father: "forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us." Practice saying the words, "Bless them, Lord, I forgive them. May they forgive me." It won't feel genuine at first, and you might have to repeat them thousands of times, perhaps, but eventually, a little at a time, they will become more real and immediate. Peace
Beautiful! St. Maria Goretti, pray for our young people.
Dear Father as a teenager I prayed a prayer card of St.Maria every day as years went I lost the prayer.. thank you for sharing her story I never knew her full story. God Bless you father ❤
Woooow St. Maria Goretti pray for us. Such courage and resilience.

My Jesus, my Queen. Have Mercy on the world. ❤ Amen
Father, you shared this beautifully. Thank you. SALVE MARIE
Salve Maria, Mary!
I do not understand why she was not a victim. Yes, she offered her suffering, but the suffering was endured despite all efforts to prevent it.
In a certain sense she was a victim. But Br. Vincent is showing us that she was not a mere victim. She was a warrior and a lioness. In as much as she was a warrior, she was not a victim. Br. Vincent was trying to show how she won the fight for her virginity and chastity. She did not come out as a loser, in spite of her death.
A soldier is honoured by his death because he fought valiantly and did not desert the battle.
In the same way, Maria was honoroured by her death because she did not give up the fight. If we look at our fight for virtue this way, and not as poor victims, we will make much more progress in our spiritual life.
Becuase, unfortunately the concept of a victim in today's language is often confused with self pity and depression, and both of these are detrimental to authentic sanctity and virtue.
Hope it made sense.
@@brothernimishcoelho Yes, it does. We agree. She was not a mere victim, in fact she was victorious in protecting her purity. Definitely agree that the concept of victim is abused today and used as a weapon to refuse to grow.
Wwau. What holoness!! Fr. Thnks a lot for rhis vidéo so well presrnted.
Thank you 🙏 Father . I have learned so much here . God bless you
Thank you Fr God Bless you an inspiring story of St Maria Gorettie
This brought me to tears Father. As a note I read the murderer had been influenced by pornography and prostitution. Santo? Nunca…
❤SANCTE MARIA GORETTI, ORA PRO NOBIS. IN NOMINE PATRIS ET FILII ET SPIRITUS SANCTI. +AMEN 🙏
I once came across a comment stating that the "real" story of Maria Goretti was more brutal with regard to SA than the official story. Supposedly their uncle who was a priest was in involved in her cause for sainthood and he said certain facts regarding domestic SA were suppressed. I strongly doubt the story, but I'd like to know if anyone else has heard this?
St. Maria Goretti, pray for us.
Where did you hear this? We have mentioned the 2 other cases where she was approached in this video.
I also believe St. Maria Goretti fought back for the sake of her attacker Alessandro's soul!
I agree . I became glued. ❤
God bless you thank you for sharing this story amen
Dear St Maria Goretti please protect our young children and grandchildren from all evil. Bring the lost children back to the Lord. Amen
Thank you Br. Vincent
THAT WAS BRILLIANT THANKYOU
This is riveting storytelling. Just one minor criticism, you don't need the background music. I found it distracting.
Yes music too loud and distracting. I will share to my teenager niece, she needs this
I completely disagree with the comment on the music! The music makes the story more riveting and compelling

Heavenly father jesus my saviour
Is rape also the sin of the victim?! It can't be! Please Father, explain how she fought to 'save her soul'.
God can't possibly put the rapists' sin on the victim...
There are degrees of perfection. St. Maria gorretti acted in the most perfect way.
A victim of abuse may or may not be guilty and technically speaking they could even be saints. But it is very difficult both for the victim and for the the Church to be sure of that. But God knows and judges the heart.
We should encourage people to be like St. Maria Goretti but offer hope and mercy for victims. Regardless of consent in the act, everyone is in need of mercy, and a victim should not dwell on the past, but get over it and look ahead and Trust in God's goodness and mercy.
I don't think it would help for the victim to worry about defending his/her innocence. God is not a detective, he is a Father, and he doesn't care about the past as long as the person is willing to own up and receive HIs love and Mercy.
It is enough to mention the episode in confession once without trying to justify one's position and then leave it to the priest to decide whether there was sin or not. The penitents attitude should be of meekness and should be ready to accept that he/she might have been guilty.
And after that, forget it forever.
What are your thoughts on this? Does it make sense to you? Interested to hear your opinion.
@MissAngelala I did not delete my comment. I think the moderators did. Im sorry for being blunt but that's my nature. As it is your nature of being too soft, perhaps. We tend to see things differently. After calming down, I realize that I must have offended you. But it doesn't seem to me right to criticise a canonized saint like that. Please reconsider.
Being a martyr is an incredible grace and nigh on sure to confirm God's love. Saving one's soul is a work we have to do every day, every moment. Fighting for Jesus and against sin, whether your own or of another, and laying down your life in that struggle, is an incredible act of love to God, as an antecedent to sin. Saving one's soul doesn't only consist of avoiding sin, for St. Maria Goretti that was not the issue as the sin wouldn't (or maybe in a very minor part) be hers. She was fighting for God, which is an incredible and powerful act of purification
Saint Augustine was very clear (speaking to the distress of many Christian women who had been raped during the sack of Rome). He wrote: "We assert, then, that when the body is overpowered but the resolve to remain chaste stands firm, unaltered by any consent to evil, the crime belongs only to the man who took the woman by force and not at all to the woman who was taken by force, without her consent and without her will” (City of God, 1.19).
Saint Maria Goretti is a saint because she not only fought her own soul, but her rapist's soul as well.
Had she not fought against the rape, but relented, then Allesandro could have gone to Hell.
So it's less about sin assigned, and more about Maria's soul fighting for the love of her neighbor's soul. If Allesandro raped her, and got lynched for doing so, he would have gone to Hell forever. But since, miraculously, her martyrdom caused him to return to his senses, God gave him the grace of repentance to his soul through Maria's will to fight.
Maria's fight saved Allesandro's soul. That's why she's a saint.
Father read on Google and knew this before. Alessandro Serenelli whilst serving 27 years in prison saw a vision of her and she said she forgave him. Upon his release he became a gardener and lay brother in a convent of The Francisca Capuchin friars in the Marche until his death. You may want to check this out (but I thought it was well known?). If then she did appear to him and he converted!!we could be doing them both a disservice? But check it out. Hi from the 🇬🇧 UK
It's not clear what you meant by doing a disservice.
@brothernimishcoelho just asking did you know that Alessandro became a lay brother?and that he had a vision of this young girl forgiving him?The disservice might be that you said that he didn't repent?and that's sad,if he did. Also she would have wanted us to know that he repented? Well that's how I read these events!
He went to Heaven ..Yes he repented..
@user-hw3gy5qj9k I think you did not watch the whole video. I know it’s long, but if we watch the whole video we can avoid embarrassments 😂. Cheers
Oh dear 😢😢 u r right!!!its a good lesson for me!! Im far to impatient and my ego too big. Ha ha 😅 i prayed about this!!!and guess what?u must be the answer 😂@@Aslaner001
❤❤ Amen
🙏🏼❤🙏🏼
Thank you for taking the time, and for bringing the story of St. Maria Goretti into relevance for our own times. Thanks too for the work you and your team do on this channel and elsewhere.
I have a question though. Why is the post titled, "Many will hate me for sharing this secret." Which is the secret please? I'm not sure i picked up on it. Should it be a secret?
Also, I almost didn't watch the video just because of that title alone - though I suspect it was intended to attract, not detract. It sounds spammy to me, and unnecessarily negative (even if true). There's so much that's beautiful we could promote in that video and so use as a caption, and just leave haters alone. They may be noisy, but they are not the majority. 😊
Finally, many love you for sharing that video. Keep up the good work. God bless.
Father please pray for my granddaughters for God's protection hand over then even for my grandson that they must learn to respect woman for now they still small but lord God watch over them that they will love and obey the word of God and longe to do the will of God always 🙏 ❤️
Salve Maria. Salve Maria father Amen 🙏
Sure, count on our prayers!
Great thanks
Please sweet Jesus. Bring Alessandro to sainthood.
I did the shorter form of consecration to the blessed mother. I do have the book the heavy book on the longer consecration. Do I need to do both
Hello Gina. You can find out more about the Consecration to Mary and the resources for it here:
reconquest.heralds.org/course/course-for-consecration-to-jesus-through-mary/
When does the online Marian consecration begin?❤
We are already making preparations. Soon we will release the date!
Being a member of the one and only Imperial dynasty of Europe, the Loth(a)ringen, who founded the Holy Roman Empire, I concur.
Saint Maria Goretti being the first hired by our Lord, her murderer being hired much later in the day.
They will both receive payment, because God is good. Holy, Holy, Holy.
Salve Maria🙏
Salve Maria, Jennifer!
🙏❤️
Ella ofreció su sangre por la conversión de su atacante.
Every time I hear about Maria Goretti I feel sick thinking how this story must add more suffering to victims of sexual assault. While I know it is NOT people’s intention, but it no doubt sends the message to victims that they aren’t holy if they didn’t fight the attacker until it caused the attacker to murder them. Since something like 1 in 5 girls & 1 in 8 boys are assaulted, many repeatedly for years, there will always be victims present to hear this story. Abusers will often use the fear that causes most victims to freeze during assaults as supposed “proof” that the victim “consented” to get away with their crimes. How do we use Maria’s story to help victims heal & help children tell someone & get help if they are being abused like that by a family member, close family friend, teacher, coach? We need victims, Christian counselors who have experience helping victims to answer these issues. I can only say to victims: “Your abuse is/was NOT your fault & remember how much God loves you”.
Yes, you do have a point. 👍But it is also very important for these victims to get over the trauma. And Self-Pity is the worst enemy to overcoming trauma. Self pity makes a person more introverted and introspective and enslaves the person. Don't you agree?
Looks like the objective of this video is to take the attention away from self-pity. With Mary's help and St. Maria Goretti, I think even abuse victims can find encouragement and a person to admire in this video.
A message like this: "Resist your aggressor, but if you can't resist, then don't worry, it's okay to be violated"
might cause more harm than good. Don't you think?
But still, I think your point is very valid and should be addressed. Maybe they should find another story to do so...
Just my two pence 🪙🪙. I hope the Fathers who made this video agreee with what I am saying. 🫰
You have written well on an important point. It is evident that we must stress the beauty of chastity to our young people, but it is wrong to couch the story in “purity or sin.” If Alessandro had prevailed (grown man against an 11yr old) it would NOT have been a sin for her. Tragedy, yes. Horror, yes. Degradation, yes. But not a sin. In that regard, she could have joined her suffering to the Passion of Our Lord, in being exposed and degraded in the Cross.
Many pious women who have suffered from sexual assault struggle with this story, and thus it needs to be explained in a way that shows the great value of chastity, and the grievous sin of assault, without imputing guilt to those who survive.
@@MrsAngelala What is the point of not feeling at fault? Isn't God's forgiveness for that? It's not the end of the world if we make mistakes... Ask for forgiveness. But please don't water down morality because of that. We MUST prefer death rather than sin or cause others to sin. Because in sin, GOD is offended, and God is infinetely deserving of love. Of course it is hard, but we must aim for sanctity even though we are weak. I think it was in this book I once read by Mary Ann Budnik, You can become a Saint. If we aim for sanctity we might at least make it to purgatory, but if we aim for purgatory, we might end up in.... you know where.
Saint Augustine was very clear (speaking to the distress of many Christian women who had been raped during the sack of Rome). He wrote: "We assert, then, that when the body is overpowered but the resolve to remain chaste stands firm, unaltered by any consent to evil, the crime belongs only to the man who took the woman by force and not at all to the woman who was taken by force, without her consent and without her will” (City of God, 1.19).
@@Aslaner001Yes, but we should only "feel at fault" when we have actually committed a fault (or sin). What sin should a rape victim confess? Fornication? Adultry?
Sexual assault victims feel guilty because of the intimate nature of the violence against them. This guilt is misplaced.
SA survivors need healing, they even need to forgive their assailant (NOT the same as having any sort of contact or relationship).
Part of what makes Saint Maria Goretti a saint is her incredible forgiveness of Alessandro.
With God's grace, we must forgive those who treaspass against us and heal.
talking to us as if we are children put away the magnifying glass and speak as to an adult ...ditch the background music too
He is addressing a broad audience. He spoke clearly and got God's message across.
I, as an adult, appreciated it.❤
Jesus says that to enter into heaven, you have to have faith like a child. I say we appreciate childishness and give it its due place in our life
Thanks
