Saint Maria Goretti Medal – Catholic Gift for Women, Teens & Mothers – Symbol of Purity, Forgiveness & Spiritual Strength, 14k Yellow Gold, No Chain, Pendant Only, Made in USA

Saint Maria Goretti, a young Italian martyr of the 20th century, is cherished as a patroness of purity, forgiveness, and courage. At just 11 years old, she chose to protect her virtue and forgave her attacker before her death, showing extraordinary strength of faith and mercy.

The Saint Maria Goretti Medal is worn as a reminder of purity, forgiveness, and the strength to resist temptation. It is especially meaningful for young girls preparing for sacraments, or for women seeking courage and healing after struggles. Families often gift it as a symbol of encouragement, helping children and young adults grow in faith and virtue.

According to the Catechism of the Catholic Church, sacramentals are sacred signs instituted by the Church to prepare us to receive the fruit of the sacraments and to sanctify different circumstances of our lives (no. 1677). When blessed, this medal sanctifies the desire for purity and strengthens the faithful in living lives of forgiveness and love.

Wearing this medal is both an act of devotion and a prayer for the grace to live with courage, mercy, and purity of heart.
