Video Description:<\/h2>\n

This film is not meant to be a literal interpretation of Pier Giorgio Frassati’s life, but rather an example of something that he would surely do were he a student today at the Catholic University of America (where all the actors go to school).<\/p>\n

YOUCAT\/Catechism Inspiration:<\/strong>
\nThe passages about respect for the human person (YOUCAT 1929-33) have made a deep impression on me. I think it is incredible that Jesus loved people so much that he wanted to share our pain and joy with us, so that whatever we do to anyone, he feels just as much. It is also incredibly thought-provoking that we should view our neighbor as “another self.”<\/p>\n
