How does a boy from Milan who only lived to the age of 15 become a global “influencer for God” more than a decade after he died? Discover the inspiring story of Blessed Carlo Acutis, the first Millennial to be Beatified by the Catholic Church.
This tech-savvy teen has shown the world that computer coding and video games are not mutually exclusive with sainthood. Born in the same year as the launch of the World Wide Web, Carlo has been hailed by the pope for providing a witness to holiness in our digital age at a time when Christians are still grappling with how best to live out their faith in the world of laptops, cell phones, and social media.
From a young age, Carlo’s enthusiasm for God was contagious. He called the Eucharist “my highway to heaven” and was eager to tell anyone who would listen about the incredible reality of Jesus’ presence in the world, hidden in our neighborhoods under the appearances of bread and wine.
