Patrick Sbalchiero, Ph.D. in History (EPHE), journalist and author, specialist in the history of mystical experiences and unexplained phenomena
In Turin, the young son of Senator Frassati—heir to a dynasty of financiers and large landowners—chose a different
path. A spirited, joyful young man, he would support the poorest with unexpected humility and charity, and would commit himself to the fight against fascism, rejecting any compromise.
Struck down by a devastating case of polio, he was declared Blessed by Pope John Paul II and canonized by Pope Francis. Pier-Giorgio Frassati has become an exemplary figure for young people around the world.
