Description
Blessed Pier Giorgio Frassati
Who was Blessed Pier Giorgio Frassati? He was born in Turin, Italy in 1901. Although his family was wealthy, he befriended the poor and defenseless, the sick and the marginalized. Pier Giorgio prayed the Rosary and attended Mass every day. From this daily contact with God he derived the strength to serve others. He studied mining engineering, and had countless friends both young and old. He excelled at mountain climbing, was active in many student groups, and stood against the Fascists. When he died unexpectedly at the age of 24 the poor people he served thronged the streets of Turin to pay their last respects to him.
