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."

ALL SAINTS CELEBRATED IN AUGUST Saints celebrated on the 13th of August Marian Feast Days WELCOME! FATIMA APPARITION - AUGUST 13 The Fatima Children “BUT IN THE END MY IMMACULATE HEART WILL TRIUMPH.” But in the end my Immaculate Heart will triumph. The Holy Father will consecrate Russia to me; it will be converted, and a certain period of peace will be granted to the world. THE AUGUST 13 EVENTS On August 13, the children were in jail at Ourem. 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.

ALL SAINTS CELEBRATED IN AUGUST Saints celebrated on the 13th of August WELCOME! SAINT JOHN BERCHMANS, RELIGIOUS (Patron Saint of Altar Servers.) The eldest boy of a poor cordwainer, in a small Belgian town, John was ever a dutiful, prayerful, and studious child. Our Lord called him when but young to leave his father and his father’s house, to serve Him in the Society of Jesus. And because he was so good a son, it cost his father much to give him up to God; but he was too good a Christian to refuse outright. HE WAS SENT TO ROME John had hardly taken his religious vows when he was sent to the centre of Christendom, the holy city of Rome. His modesty, his purity, shone out as great virtue always does; and the young laymen who attended the lectures would come to gaze upon his beautiful and holy face, and go away the better for the sight. GREAT VIRTUE Three short years, and his last sickness found him sighing for heaven, and three days before the great feast of Mar...
