St. Maria Goretti Minibook

Saint Maria Goretti Minibook BK147 is a printed, staple-bound Catholic minibook with 28 pages by Bob and Penny Lord, published by Journeys of Faith. It offers a concise life of Saint Maria Goretti with pilgrimage-based context from Corinaldo and Nettuno, making it useful for personal devotion, saint study, and Confirmation reading.

• 28-page printed minibook format for quick reading, travel, or parish use
• Focuses on Saint Maria Goretti as a martyr, model of purity, and example of forgiveness
• Includes place-based context from Corinaldo and Nettuno in Italy for stronger historical understanding
• Written by Catholic authors Bob and Penny Lord, known for saint biographies and pilgrimage research
• Suitable for prayer groups, religious education, teen faith formation, and personal reflection

Unlike a longer Catholic book, this minibook is designed for readers who want a focused introduction to the saint’s life and virtues without losing essential context. It goes beyond the well-known account of her martyrdom by highlighting her selflessness, concern for her eternal soul, and mercy toward her attacker.

This booklet is a practical choice for those seeking Catholic gifts, Lives of the Saints reading, or a resource to accompany novena prayers and discussion on chastity, holiness, and forgiveness. Compared to general saint summaries, it provides specific devotional and historical details that make it easier to cite, teach, and revisit.
