Blessed Pier Giorgio
Frassati The Man of the Eight Beatitudes April 6, 1901 - July 4, 1925 Turin, Italy "To live without Faith, without a patrimony to defend, without a steady struggle for Truth, that is not living but existing." (Letter to a friend February 27, 1925) O Father, you gave to the young Pier Giorgio Frassati the joy of meeting Christ and of living his faith in the service of the poor and the sick; through his intercession may we, too, walk the path of the Beatitudes and follow the example of his generosity, spreading the spirit of the Gospel in Society. Through Christ our Lord. Amen. |
