These two are great inspirations for anyone who has young ones who may want to show that God still works through young people today. Their stories are heartbreaking yet so inspirational at the same time, and I have no doubt in time both will be canonized Saints of the Roman Catholic Church. Please view the links and be inspired.

I was so happy to see this post! I learned about the first young lady after reading the site.

I knew about Chiara Corbella Petrillo because I have the book about her and was so inspired by her life. So far I have loaned it to one friend and she was also very inspired by it.
 
Oh, Blessed Chiara is amazing! She’s actually my confirmation saint (Blessed? I don’t actually know how to phrase that, haha!). 🙂 Thank you for sharing!

Have you ever heard of Bl. Pier Georgio? He’s another good man that few seem to know about.

I have a biography of him, and many young men would benefit by hearing about him.
 
I had heard of Bl. Pier Georgio before actually I have a prayer card of him I got in a set, but this is the first time I read his biography. Thank you for sharing!
 
This actually may be a better link to Blessed Chiara ‘Luce’ Badano’s life and story.piercedhearts.org/theology_heart/life_saints/bl_chiara_luce.html

Thanks for the positive responses. These two were who I first found when at my young adult Catholic group had a discussion about keeping faith in todays world. I searched for young people who can inspire us to live in Christ’s image and Blessed Chiara ‘Luce’ Badano and Chiara Corbella Petrillo were two that I found their stories to be the most inspiring and recent as well in keeping the faith. I will also add Blessed Pier Giorgio Frassati to my list.

I just looked at the link you provided for Blessed Chiara “Luce” Badano’s life and story. It looks wonderful, and I bookmarked it for later.

Thanks much!
