Documented theca with relic of Saint Maria Goretti Virgin Martyr

Mid-20th century round glass-fronted silvered metal theca housing first class ex corpore (of the body) relic ofSaint Maria Goretti (†1902). The theca is accompanied by the original matching authentics document issued by the Postulator of the Passionists Order in the month of her canonization in 1950.

Saint Maria Goretti (1890 – 1902) is an Italian virgin-martyr of the Catholic Church, and one of the youngest canonizedsaints. on June 24, 1950, Pius XII canonized Maria as a saint, the "Saint Agnes of the 20th century." Maria's body is kept in the crypt of the Basilica of Nostra Signora delle Grazie e Santa Maria Goretti in Nettuno, south of Rome. It has been often reported that it is incorrupt but this is not the case. It is kept inside a statue which is lying down beneath the altar, which has been mistakenly believed by some to be its entirety. She is a Holy Patron of victims of rape, crime victims, teenage girls, modern youth, and Children of Mary.
