James or Giacomo was born on 4 April 1884, in San Lorenzo di Fossano (Cuneo), then in the Kingdom of Italy.The Alberione family, made up of Michael and Teresa Allocco and their six children, were farmers. He was the fifth son of a peasant family and had a more delicate physical constitution than his brothers. At the age of sixteen, James entered the seminary of Alba financially aided by his Uncle James, who was his godfather. He and his father traveled to the seminary riding in an ox-driven cart. At the seminary of Alba, his spiritual director was Canon Francesco Chiesa, now "Servant of God".
On the night of 31 December 1900, the night that divided the 19th and 20th centuries, he prayed for four hours before the Blessed Sacrament and contemplating the future, felt that he was called to do something for the people of the new century.
Blessed James died of natural causes on 26 November 1971 at 6:26 p.m. in the Generalate House of the Society in Rome. He had received a personal visit by Pope Paul VI the day he died. He was buried in the sub-crypt of the Basilica of Mary Queen of Apostles in Rome.
Blessed James. was declared venerable on 25 June, 1996, and was beatified on 27 April, 2003, by His Holiness Blessed John Paul II.
