Our Mission |
Imitating the example of Saint Pier Giorgio Frassati, we strive to encourage young adults to feel at home in the Catholic Church and build authentic relationships through prayer, discussion, and as much fresh air as possible.

Benefits to the Church |
At Frassati Fellowship we hope to bridge the gap between high school and adult ministries. This will immediately benefit the young adults of our parish by giving them a sense of belonging as well as offering an opportunity for them to join other Holy Spirit ministries in the future. In turn, this will benefit the parish as a whole by increasing the number of people who stay in the Church and continue to participate in its many ministries.

Prayer to Walk the Path of the Beatitudes
"O Father, you gave to the young Pier Giorgio Frassati the joy of meeting Christ and of living his faith in the service of the poor and the sick; through his intercession may we, too, walk the path of the beatitudes and follow the example of his generosity, spreading the spirit of the Gospel in society. Through Christ our Lord, Amen." +Cardinal Giovanni Saldarini, Archbishop of Turin |
