Testimony of Father Gary from USA
Blessed Pier Giorgio Frassati was a powerful intercessor in my life during my seminary formation. He is a wonderful patron saint for the youth.
Testimony of Ruth Anne from Italy
As a university teacher for more than forty years, I found Pier Giorgio a wonderful example to propose to my students: lively, sociable, and with a deep spiritual life that led him to serve the poor and suffering with no thought of praise or reward.
Testimony of Evan from USA
Pier Giorgio is my go to! I took his name as my confirmation name and his inspirational life has been entwined in so many aspects of my life. Our church in Stowe, Vermont has a special love for him because we all love the mountains as well and find God in the beauty of his majestic creation. He is a Saint for our times and for the youth.
Testimony of Etienne from USA
Blessed Pier Giorgio is a great example to me as I AMA young person seeking to live theChristian life authentically. I would really appreciate his canonization which Is telling that even at a young age you could be who God calls you to be.
... A saint.
Testimony of Mercedes from USA
Blessed Pier Giorgio helped answer my prayers and allowed me to beat New York traffic in order to make my flight for a mission to Peru with Frassatti Fellowship. I was running very late and was worried of spoiling the mission, but Blessed Pier Giorgio's intercession allowed me to make it to the airport in just over 20 minutes from Harlem to JFK. I kept the receipt with the time stamp because I was in disbelief. The taxi drove at terrifying speed but the driver knew I would miss my mission if I didn't make it. Cars on the parkway parted ways for our taxi...which is incredible courtesy in a busy city like this. I didn't dare tell anyone until I got home from Peru. On our mission in Lima many of us missions prayed and asked for intercessions, especially in the hardships of our labor, when we needed to find others in a poor village without communication, and when we got hit by upset stomachs and altitude sickness for days. I have never seen so many prayers answered one after another. As an engineer, I tend to scrutinize evidence and proof and what I saw left me with no other choice but to believe that prayers and intercessions like those of Blessed Pier Giorgio's.
Testimony of Fr. Thomas-Marie from France
I knew the name of Bl. Pier Giorgio Frassati when I was student and during the prearation of WYD of Köln in 2005. Later, when I entered in the Order of Preacher as novice, I learnt more about the testimony of sainthood of Bl. Pier Giorgio. I was touched by his energy (he was a great sportsman), his devotion, his charism of discernment and as spiritual adviser, but above all I stay very affected by his joy, his smile and his love for the poors. Today Bl. Pier-Giorgio keeps on being one of the saints who go with me in my way of life as disciple of Christ, as priest : the day of my ordination, as a gift, one of my dominican brother entrust my ministry to the intercession of Bl. Pier-Giorgio. May Pope Francis grant our request and declare Bl. Pier-Giorgio as a saint for being an example and an intercessor for all the Church and specially for the young people !!
Testimony of Douillet from France
We had the favour of venerating Pier Giorgio's ice axe at the Forum des Jeunes in Paray-le-Monial in France. It was very touching and thank God I was allowed to hold it in my hands. I won't tell you the whole story ( unless you want it) but thanks to this Ice axe I have the confirmation that my two brothers, killed in an avalanche on 12, 24, 2014 were alive, with God in heaven. Glory be to God ! And thank you Pier Giorgio !
Testimony of Juan Antonio from USA
I love Bl. Pier Giorgio. He has been a guiding force in my life.
Testimony of Robert from USA
I had become aware of Pier Georgio recently and have studied his all too short life with great joy. And, although I am not young, I do believe his life is truly one for our youth to follow and emulate. His love of God, the liturgy and his deep devotion to the poor and oppressed provide our young people a magnificent role model so sorely needed today. My daily prayers include his cause for sainthood. Thanks you for your consideration (from a non youthful follower of BL. Pier Georgio).
Testimony of Dario from Argentina
I`m a father of four children.... now society is very difficult to live as a catholic youth, they strugle every single day to live their faith. I pray for them to Blessed Pierre Giorgio since years ago to ask for them to keep our faith.
He is an excellent model of faith to youths and i believe he can guide as he already did my children to eternal life.
Blessed Pierre Giorgio Pray for us !!
Testimony of Megan from USA
He is at every retreat and talk to youth that I give! He is a patron of my youth group! What a treasure!
Testimony of Carolina from Argentina
He's my inspiration to study, live with faith and love, and move closer souls to God.
Testimony of Sofia from Argentina
The first time I heard about Pier Giorgio was 7 years ago, but it was 5 years after that when I finally read his biography and I absolutely fell for him. He made me realize that it is possible to be a saint even in your routine, doing the everyday things with love and having a close relationship with Jesus in the Eucharist. His life is so simple, yet so amazing! I love how strong his convictions were and that he was never afraid to show he was Catholic and to share his Faith with those who didn't believe. He is truly an example for young people around world.
Testimony of Annie from USA
Bl. Pier Giorgio Frassati has been an important model for young people as he brought his life to faith and faith to life. He was adventurous like JPII and courageous like Jesus Christ himself to meet people where they are at. I have loved learning more about him and think that his canonization will introduce him to even more young people around the world and give them hope in God's plan for our lives.
Testimony of Agustina S. from Argentina
Pier Giorgio's life inspire me to star a more spiritual life
Testimony of Michael from England
came to know him through bishop philip egan
Testimony of Katherine from England
I became aware of the beautiful life of Bl Pier Giorgio Frassati when I was preparing to go on the Dominican Youth Movement (English Province) pilgrimage to Turin and Oropa in July 2017. SInce then I have been inspired to share his example of sanctity with my friends and my Lay Dominican Fraternity.
He is a shining example of the capabilities of youth and all who truly trust in Our Father.
May his infectious joy continue to inspire others who may be inspirations in their turn.
Bl Pier Giorgio Frassati, pray for us!
Testimony of David from England
