From this Saturday, October 10, the Catholic Church has a new blessed. And with a rather unusual profile: he is Carlo Acutis, a young influencer who died at the age of 15 due to leukemia.
As reported by Vatican News, he is a “normal boy, with his flaws and virtues, who struggled to put God first and who used the internet to evangelize.”
According to Pope Francis’ description of Acutis, the young man “knew very well that these mechanisms of communication, advertising and social networks can be used to make us sleepy, dependent on consumption or obsessed with time. free “, but who knew how to use” new communication techniques to transmit the Gospel and to communicate values and beauty. “
The Miracle of the influencer
“I want to stop vomiting!” That was the request of a six-year-old Brazilian boy who, due to a malformation, could not stop vomiting. But after praying to the venerable Caros Acutis, he had a complete and inexplicable cure.
On October 18, 2019, the technical team of doctors of the Congregation for the Cause of Saints received the dossier of the alleged miracle and on November 14, gave a positive opinion.
