The Return of the Great Pier Giorgio!

"He'll come here because I have the most sincere pumpkin patch and he respects sincerity."
- Linus van Pelt (from "It's The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown")

This is a wonderful time in the Church year when we the Church Militant honor the Church Triumphant and the Church Suffering.  Although there have been some efforts in the culture to put the focus elsewhere, there are still so many people who enjoy it for all of the right reasons.  I especially love seeing the creativity of the friends of Blessed Frassati - from amazing pumpkin carvings to clever costumes! 

Earlier this week, I received an email from Kevin F. who wrote: "I bought 50 of the Pact Kits as give-aways for the kids in my Parish this Halloween...in addition to candy. Want to spread the word about PGF."  What a great way to introduce young children to Blessed Frassati!  Of course, without the candy, as Kevin clearly knows, it might not go over as well!  :)
