Fr. Claudio Piccinini, C.P. is a Passionist Missionary Priest born in Ascoli Piceno, central Italy, in 1941. Fr. Claudio lived in Italy for 18 years as a shepherd and farmer before establishing residence in Windsor, Ontario, Canada, with his family. Father is one of seven children.

While still a student preparing for the priesthood in Union City, NJ, Fr. Claudio founded a mission consisting of Religious, Priests, and Laity to promote Peace, Love and Unity according to the teaching of the Gospel.   This mission of Società Unita/The United Society is still working on its goals and has branched out to Toronto, Ontario, and West Springfield, MA. In Canada, the mission has a program called TEOPOLI, the City of God, established on 200 acres of land in the beautiful Muskoka area.   Every year thousands of pilgrims and children spend days and weeks in this place of pilgrimage and prayer to deepen their faith and religious lives.

After completing 11 years of study, which took him to various cities of the United States, such as Pittsburgh and Scranton, PA; Jamaica, NY; Union City, NJ; and West Hartford, CT, Father was ordained to the priesthood in Toronto, Canada, on June 2, 1972.

Father has devoted much of his time to the needs of the young and of the family in modern society.

In collaboration with Andreina Brann, a journalist from the New York Times and a volunteer lay Passionist Collaborator, Father wrote a book entitled ASK, AND YOU WILL RECEIVE in response to the Holy Father’s special Jubilee call to evangelize.
