Biography
Italian priest and missionary to rural areas, Francisco Pianzola brought the Gospel to peasants, workers and young people far from parish life. He organized an itinerant preaching and brought together the Oblate Fathers to share the living conditions of simple people. Knowing the exploitation suffered by many workers, she founded the Missionary Sisters of the Immaculate Queen of Peace. He wanted to be a poor and available instrument for God to work through him.
