A Man of the Beatitudes |

By Luciana Frassati, sister of the Blessed |

An eyewitness account of the life of Pier Giorgio Frassati (1901-1925), a
handsome, athletic and fun-loving young man from a prominent but troubled
Italian family, who was beatifi ed by Pope John Paul II. From a privileged
background, he turned to a life devoted to working with the poor, and was
a courageous witness of Christian faith and charity to many others. Deeply
spiritual, Pier Giorgio sometimes spent entire nights in Eucharistic
adoration before going mountain climbing early the next morning! He died
of polio at the early age of 24. Fascinating reading. Contains photos. |

My Brother Pier Giorgio: His Last Days |
|
By Luciana Frassati, sister of the Blessed |
|
From the heart of his sister, Luciana, we receive this gripping first-hand
testimony of Pier Giorgio’s last week on earth. In his final days, his
Christian character was revealed in an extraordinary way—his devotion to
friends and family, his longing to marry the girl he loved, his concern
for the poor, and above all his acceptance of God’s will. In the end, his
family was astonished by the huge multitude that formed his funeral
procession—finally realizing that Pier Giorgio was destined to belong to
the whole world. Recounted with incredible detail and love. No one will
come away from reading this book unchanged. Photos. |
