Traduction du text ci-dessous:

Le Bienheureux Giovanni Battista Scalabrini était un prélat catholique italien et l'évêque de Piacenza de 1876 jusqu'à sa mort. il fut le fondateur des Missionnaires de Saint Charles et des Missionnaires de Saint Charles.

L'ascension de Scalabrini à l'épiscopat a été rapide après avoir donné une série de conférences sur le premier concile du Vatican en 1872 et son dévouement sans faille au catéchisme, ce qui a amené le pape Pie IX à le surnommer "l'apôtre du catéchisme"; Les papes successifs Léon XIII et Pie X l'ont tenu dans une estime incroyable et tous deux n'ont pas réussi à le convaincre d'accepter des archidiocèses ou le cardinalat.

Blessed Giovanni Battista Scalabrini was an Italian Roman Catholic prelate and the Bishop of Piacenza from 1876 until his death; he was the founder of both the Missionaries of Saint Charles and the Mission Sisters of Saint Charles.

Scalabrini's rise to the episcopate came at a rapid pace after giving a series of lectures on the First Vatican Council in 1872 and his staunch dedication to catechism which led Pope Pius IX to dub him as the "Apostle of the Catechism"; successive popes Leo XIII and Pius X held him in incredible esteem and both failed to convince him accept archdioceses or the cardinalate.
