St Pier Giorgio Frassati Novena
The St. Pier Giorgio Frassati Novena honors a 20th-century Italian lay Dominican and mountaineer known as the "Man of the Eight Beatitudes" for his joyful service to the poor and intense devotion to the Eucharist. Often prayed in the nine days leading up to his July 4 feast day, the novena seeks the intercession of this patron of students and youth for courage, charity, and a deeper faith.
