Catholic Saints

Carlo Acutis' Canonization

06 Sep 2025

Description

Born in 1991, Carlo Acutis was raised in Italy by parents who never imagined their firstborn son would one day be declared a saint. In his short life of just 15 years, Carlo demonstrated remarkable maturity in virtue and faith, particularly through his devotion to the Eucharist, all while living the ordinary life of a boy who loved sports and his pets. Like many children his age, Carlo developed an interest in the internet but viewed it as a tool for evangelization and often warned about its potential dangers. Using his technological talents, he created an exhibit of Eucharistic miracles that remains available today.
