Everything changes after he returns from a pilgrimage to a miraculous statue of the Holy Virgin Mary, when he becomes the victim of a plane accident in which, with no hope left, he prays alongside the other passengers, gives his final blessing, and then... And then what?

<p>After the Kyrie hymn was sung, the prayer of the day was solemnly intoned by Cesare, followed by the day's readings read by Benjamin. What amazed me the most was that the reader of the second reading was... Gabriel himself.
