Calling all young adults ages 18-35! You're invited to attend our Mother Seton Young Adults Group! We'll get together and talk about our lives, our faith, enjoy community and grow together as young adults in Christ! All young adults are invited - it doesn't matter if you're Catholic or not, Christian or not -- all are invited!

Pier Giorgio was engaged in the life of the Church through regular worship and adoration, service to the poor and marginalized, advocacy for social justice for the disenfranchised and for religious liberty, regular participation in student activities, devotion to his family, and joyful companionship with his friends and fellow Catholics in his community. He saw many parallels between Catholic life and his favorite pastime, mountain-climbing. He would regularly organize trips into the mountains with his close friends with occasions for prayer, liturgies, and conversations about faith on the way up to or down from the summit.
After what would become his final climb he wrote a simple note on a photograph: "Verso L'Alto", which means "to the heights." This phrase has since come to encapsulate his philosophy of mountaineering and his Catholic outlook on life and adventure.
In 2024 it was announced that Bl. Pier Giorgio Frassati will be canonized (i.e. made a saint) in 2025!
Bl. Pier Giorgio Frassati, Pray for Us!
