Assisi, October 2, 2020 – Carlo Acutis, born in London in 1991, lived in Milan is died in 2006 in Monza for fulminant leukemia. Has been indicated by Pope Francis as a model of youthful holiness. As is clear from his biography, he left in the memory of all who knew him a great emptiness and a deep admiration for what was his brief but intense testimony of an authentically Christian life.
A young man with his interests, his activities, but all linked to his great love for the Lord present above all in Sacrament of the Eucharist – which he called “the way to heaven” – and of filial devotion to Holy virgin mary.
There, then, he prayed the Rosary and attended the Dough every day, often also doing Eucharistic adoration. An admired, loved young man, especially gifted for the world of computing to the point that both his friends and adults with degrees in computer engineering considered him a genius.
The interests of Carlo – still comes out of his bio – ranged from sports to computer programming, movie editing and website building, to the newspapers Of which he also did the editing and layout, even volunteering with the most needy, with children and the elderly.
Then death, dismay, his decision to be buried Assisi where his body remained until April 2019 when it was transferred to the Sanctuary of Dispossession. On July 5, 2018, Pope Francis authorized the Congregation for the Causes of Saints to promulgate the decree on the heroic virtues of the “venerable” Servant of God Carlo Acutis. This year the beatification.
