I went on pilgrimage to Pollone Spring of 2017 and I loved it. We went to morning mass and then hiked from his home up to the top of the mountains. It was the best mix of prayer and normalcy I think I have ever experienced. I had so much fun! So many young people see that they need the Love of the Lord and His healing, but I tend to forget how much fun we can have with Him. I haven't had any big struggle where I've turned to Bl. Pier Giorgio, but I have in a lot of little things. When I'm unsure of the future, when I would rather do something else than pray, when my family is really struggling, then I turn to Bl. Pier Giorgio as a friend. I long to share in his intense love for the Eucharist and his trust in the Lord to live day by day.
