Join us on a pilgrimage lead by Bishop Philip Egan to Turin in northern Italy and Assisi in central Italy to learn about and experience the lives of our two newest saints – St Carlo Acutis and St Pier Giorgio Frassati – Monday 20th July – Sunday 26th July.
Beginning in Turin where St Pier Giorgio Frassati was born, lived and died at the age of just 24 in 1925. We will visit his parish church and the family summer house in the foothills of the alps very close to the Marian shrine at Opora. Then to Assisi to visit the tomb of St Carlo Acutis, the modern day saint using the internet to spread the Good News of the Gospels before his death in 2006 aged 15.
