Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI Speaking on Saint Frassati

"Like [Piergiorgio],discover that it is worth it to commit oneself for God and with God, to respond to his call in the fundamental decisions and the daily ones, even when it is costly."  (Excerpt from his message to the youth of Turin)

During his pontificate, Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI often held out Saint Pier Giorgio Frassati as an example to imitate.  Some of the addresses in which he mentioned him by name can be found at left.
