SAINT FEAST DAY 12 OCTOBER: ST CARLO ACUTIS

SAINT CARLO ACUTIS, WEB DESIGNER

Saint Carlo Acutis was an Italian web designer who died at the age of fifteen. He passed away from leukaemia in October 2006, and is known for having used his knowledge of computers to create a website that catalogued Eucharistic miracles across the world.

HE WAS VERY DEVOTED TO THE HOLY EUCHARIST

A pious Catholic, he went to Mass each day and was very devoted to the Eucharist. His parents and classmates state that Saint Carlo "helped them better live out their faith, by earning their respect", according to Rome Reports.

HE WAS NOT ASHAMED TO SHARE THE FAITH

Francesca Consoli, of the Office of the Causes of Saints of the Archdiocese of Milan, said, "He was not ashamed to share convictions with others.

"But people would not make fun of him, because they understood that his convictions were real, they came from inside him. It wasn’t something artificial."

The civil administrator threatened to boil them in oil if they did not tell the Lady’s secret. Though badly frightened, they could not think of disobeying our Lady.
