The Pilgrimage of Mercy: Tour of the Major Relics of Saint Maria Goretti in the United States
If you have had the opportunity to participate in the Pilgrimage Tour of the Major Relics of St. Maria Goretti Church, you may have seen a reproduction of the painting of Saint Maria Goretti that can be seen in the Shrine Church.
The original, painted by artist Noah Buchanan, is 11 feet tall, and beautifully presents how Saint Maria Goretti reached out to Allessandro and forgave him, because she wanted him “to be with her in Heaven.” The perfect example of mercy as we anticipate the Opening of the Jubilee Year of Mercy.
Framed prints of the painting are available in our Flores Mariae Gift Shop. Please visit, or call toll-free (877) 799-4059.
Send me information. Fo you have one going from Minnesota?
Dear Teresa,
Please contact Pat Krause – (608) 799-4571 – since she is taking the RSVP’s, and would be able to tell you if someone from Minnesota has RSVP’d.
Thank you!
Sister M. Ancilla
