I’m about to date myself. How many of you
remember Paul Harvey and his radio broadcasts
of “The Rest of the Story”? They were great
stories that always had unexpected endings.
When he got to that point in his stories, he would
always preface the surprise ending with the
words, “and now, here’s the rest of the story.”
Last week, in honor of our Patron Saint, Maria Goretti, I wrote about how she was murdered by
Alessandro Serenelli and on her deathbed, forgave him. Alessandro was convicted of the murder,
but because he was a minor of nineteen, he was sentenced to thirty years in prison. He remained
unrepentant and uncommunicative for three years. And now, here’s the rest of the story.
A local bishop, Giovanni Blandini, visited him, and he revealed a vision he had of Maria handing him
fourteen lilies (recall that he had stabbed her fourteen times). After this vision, he made a full
conversion and was released on good behavior after twenty-seven years. He also declared that,
indeed, Maria died a virgin. His first action was to seek Assunta, Maria’s mother, and beg her
forgiveness on Christmas night 1934, which she readily granted saying: “If Maria forgave you, I can
do no less,” and they attended Mass together the next day.
Serenelli eventually retired to a monastery of the Order of Friars Minor Capuchin, where he served
as their gardener and porter, eventually being accepted as a lay brother. Alessandro died peacefully
in 1970. Contrary to reports, he was not at Maria’s canonization, feeling that his presence would
detract from the Little Saint’s honor. There is talk that his cause for sainthood might be put forward.
In 1961, Alessandro wrote the following:
“I'm nearly 80 years old. I'm about to die.
Looking back at my past, I can see that in my early youth, I chose a bad path which led me to ruin
myself. My behavior was influenced by print, mass-media and bad examples which are followed by
the majority of young people without even thinking. And I did the same. I was not worried.
There were a lot of generous and devoted people who surrounded me, but I paid no attention to
them because a violent force blinded me and pushed me toward a wrong way of life.
When I was 20 years-old, I committed a crime of passion. Now, that memory represents something
horrible for me. Maria Goretti, now a Saint, was my good Angel, sent to me by Providence to guide
and save me. I still have impressed upon my heart her words of rebuke and of pardon. She prayed for
me, she interceded for her murderer. Thirty years of prison followed. If I had been of age, I would
have spent all my life in prison. I accepted to be condemned because it was my own fault.
Little Maria was really my light, my protectress; with her help, I behaved well during the 27 years of
prison and tried to live honestly when I was again accepted among the members of society. The
Brothers of St. Francis, Capuchins from the Marche, welcomed me with angelic charity into their
monastery as a brother, not as a servant. I've been living with their community for 24 years, and now
I am serenely waiting to witness the vision of God, to hug my loved ones again, and to be next to my
Guardian Angel and her dear mother, Assunta.
I hope this letter that I have written can teach others the happy lesson of avoiding evil and of always
following the right path, like little children. I feel that religion with its precepts is not something we
can live without, but rather it is the real comfort, the real strength in life and the only safe way in
every circumstance, even the most painful ones of life.”

For many of us, summertime is synonymous with relax
time. Whether enjoying the local pool or going on vacation,
life takes on a different rhythm
in the summer months.
A decline in church attendance during the summer
usually leads to a dip in giving. Yep, you got it.
The summer slump.
God’s call on your life doesn’t stop just because attendance
suffers a 30% drop during the summer slump.
And online giving doesn't have to decline!
Visit www.stmariagorettiparish.com
and click on the “Online Giving” icon.
Your financial contributions to the parish help as we continue to do God’s work.
If donating in person, stewardship checks should
be made payable to:
St. Maria Goretti Parish
Envelopes may be dropped in the stewardship box in church, mailed to the Parish Office

The new St. Maria Goretti Eucharistic Minister list will be established
over the next few weeks. I have been asked to coordinate the
assignments and any training. We are looking for those members of St.
John the Baptist, St. Sebastian and St. Albert the Great who previously
served as Eucharistic Ministers and are willing to continue serving in
the new Parish. A meeting will be scheduled in the near future.
There are three ways to let us know that you are interested in serving as
a Eucharistic Minister. Once we heave the new listing, a schedule will
be forthcoming and will be published weekly in the bulletin. In order to
be put on the list of Eucharistic Ministers:
E-mail me at david.griswack@yahoo.com
Text me or call at (313) 999-5144
Call the Parish Office during business hours and leave your name and phone number
Please let us know as soon as possible and which Mass you prefer.
We are looking forward to hearing from you or seeing you at the meeting which will be scheduled in
the near future. There will only be one meeting a year for Eucharistic Ministers. This does not mean
that you can’t join this ministry at any time. All that will be required is that you notify us of your
interest so we can meet and put you on the schedule.
Thank You for your consideration.
