Raymond, a physics major and avid chess player, discovered an inspiration for his life of faith in the story of Montse Grases. He designed youthful prayer cards to spread devotion to her. She was declared Venerable in 2016 by Pope Francis.

Montse Grases was born on 10 July 1941 and died on Holy Thursday, 29 March 1959. Montse’s life was similar to that of any other girl her age, and at the same time it was filled with God. She found Jesus amid her normal everyday activities and gave herself generously to Him.
