Blessed Carlo Acutis

With two prominent Catholic organizations recently signing on as official partners, a new film taking an in-depth look at the soon-to-be first millennial saint is starting to catch the eye of fans of Catholic media and beyond.

Pope Francis announced that he will canonize Blesseds Carlo Acutis and Pier Giorgio Frassati next year and that the Vatican will host a world meeting on the rights of the child Feb. 3.

Carlo Acutis loved playing Pokémon and Super Mario on his PlayStation. He kicked the soccer ball around with his friends. In the most frequently seen photo of the young man, he is pictured in a red polo shirt.
