In this meditation, Fr. Leo Austin invites us to rediscover the transformative power of a personal encounter with Jesus Christ. Drawing upon the life of St. Pier Giorgio Frassati and the gospel story of the paralyzed man, Fr. Leo reflects on how faith, joy, and mission naturally flow from meeting Christ. This meditation challenges us to move beyond fear and place our heart fully on the path God sets before us.

Listen now to reflect on:

The power of encountering Christ through prayer
How faith often acts through friendship and shared courage
Cultivating joy and mission in everyday life
Pier Giorgio Frassati’s call to live “verso l’alto”—toward the heights
Allowing God to transform the world through you
