About
Blessed Carlo Acutis
Carlo Acutis, a boy from Milan who lived to the age of 15 became a global “influencer for God”! A youth from our day, like many others, was a witness to the Resurrection; he laid his trust in the Virgin Mary, lived a life of grace, and told his contemporaries about his miraculous encounter with God!
He lived his life as generously as he could with God’s grace. That journey brought him many experiences, but they were all united by a burning desire to serve God and others as generously as possible.
