St Pier Giorgio Frassati Medal

Pier Giorgio Frassati was an Italian Catholic known for his deep faith, service to the poor, and love of the outdoors, often combining mountain climbing with prayer and friendship. The phrase "Verso l'alto" is often associated with him. It means "to the heights", which he related to his spirituality: to always search for that which is higher than|himself. He died at age 24 in 1925, and his joyful, virtuous life led to his beatification by Pope John Paul II in 1990, who praised him as a model for young people. He is expected to be canonized a Saint in the 2025 Jubilee year. Honor the inspiring life of Pier Giorgio Frassati with this devotional medal designed for daily wear or gifting.
