Short Biography of Salvatore Valenti
Salvo Valenti was born on 11 March 1984 in Palermo to Antonino and Rosalia Lopes. He receives his First Communion at the age of eight. At thirteen, his mother accompanied him to Father Matteo La Grua to ask him for a prayer of blessing. On that occasion the priest blesses him and foretells him: In your life you will have to carry a big cross, the Lord is close to you and has a plan for you ... At that moment he does not understand the meaning of the prophetic words, but today everything it is clearer: Father La Grua, perhaps, saw the wonders of which the Archangel San Michele would have been the protagonist towards this boy. After middle school, Salvo enrolled in the Commercial Technical Institute for accountants and graduated in 2003. He began working first as a warehouse keeper and then as a clerk, without ever neglecting his commitments of faith. He meets a girl from Palermo, Simona, with whom he marries. He attends the Santo Stefano alla Zisa Parish where he meets Don Antonino who becomes his confessor.
