Blessed Carlo Acutis Now to be Recognized as Saint Carlo Acutis

Canonization Second Miracle Recognized

Thursday, May 23 2024

Pope Francis has recognized a second miracle attributed to the intercession of Blessed Carlo Acutis. The miracle recognized on Thursday is related to a woman from Costa Rica. The Catholic Church has attributed two miracles to him, which means he can be elevated to sainthood.

Carlo Acutis died of leukemia in 2006 at age 15. He was known for his strong faith and his love of technology. He used his computer skills to create a website about the Eucharist and to help others learn about their faith. Carlo was beatified in 2020, and his canonization is expected to take place later this year.

The recognition of this second miracle is a significant step in the canonization process. It is a testament to the power of faith and the intercession of the saints. Carlo Acutis is an example of how we can all use our gifts to serve God and others.
