This Sunday 7th September , Pope Leo XIV will canonize Bl Carlo Acutis in St. Peter's Square in Rome, together with Bl Pier Giorgio Frassati. Bl Carlo Acutis was born in London in 1991. But he moved to Italy with his parents a few months after his birth. Even though his parents were not particularly religious, but from a very early age, Carlo had a great love for the Eucharist. Although like other teenagers who wore jeans and trainers, played video games, loved computing and websites and enjoyed football, it was obvious that Carlo lived his life for Christ. He used the internet to spread his faith as he created a remarkable website which presents Eucharistic miracles from across the globe. However, after being diagnosed with untreatable leukaemia, Carlo died when he was only fifteen. He was beatified in 2020 following a miraculous healing of a Brazilian child – a healing attributed to his powerful intercession. Here are some of Bl Carlo Acutis’ inspiring quotes: “All people are born as originals but many die as photocopies.” “Sadness is looking at ourselves, happiness is looking towards God.” “The Eucharist is the highway to heaven.” “I offer all the suffering I will have to suffer for the Lord, for the Pope, and the Church.” ‘God’s Influencer’ - a short biography of Carlo Acutis is available for £7.50 from the Church Shop
