I knew about Bl. Pier Giorgio Frassati when I met the Catholic Movement "Comunione e Liberazione", in 1982. I read his biography "Verso l'Alto", by don Primo Soldi. I instantly fell in love with his person, so pure and determined, so true, so in love with Christ and the Blessed Virgin Mary. I was only 22 then and Pier Giorgio became my brother from then on. Through a friend of mine, a priest, who knew Luciana Frassati, Pier Giorgio's sister, I had a beautiful autographed image of Pier Giorgio and I hold this picture in my kids' bedroom since then. I know he is looking after us and praying for us and all the young people around the world. I hope he will be canonized soon. Blessed Pier Giorgio Frassati, pray for us.
