Blessed Pier Giorgio Frassati
1901-1925
Blessed Pier Giorgio Frassati was a young Italian who loved the outdoors, his friends, and having fun. But he also performed works of charity. He would give his train money to the poor and then run home in time for dinner. Sometimes he even gave his coat to beggars. He lived his life following the Great Commandment. When he was twenty-four, he contracted polio and died. At his funeral, hundreds of people came to pray. Blessed Pope John Paul II called him "a man of the Beatitudes."
Blessed Pier established a newspaper called Momento. He especially liked playing practical jokes.
Lord, help us to enjoy the good things of life and have fun like Blessed Pier did. Amen.
