Biography of Blessed Carlo Acutis: A Millennial in Paradise
This teen friendly biography of Blessed Carlo Acutis tells Carlo's amazing and inspiring story in topical chunks with discussion questions, reflections, and applications to every day life at the conclusion of each chapter. Not only is this a biography of this young man who died at the age of fifteen, but it also shows that youth of today can follow Carlo's example by making holiness rather than worldly concerns the goal of their lives. If Carlo could be focused on God's Will while also playing video games, socializing with friends, helping the poor, and counseling his buddies in things spiritual and moral, so can you.
Carlo is a sign of contradiction in the modern world who serves as a heroic model for today's young people—a teenager who programmed computers and enjoyed films and comics yet lived as an authentic and sincere disciple of Christ. When he developed leukemia, he offered his suffering both for Pope Benedict XVI and for the Catholic Church, saying: “I offer all the suffering I will have to undergo for the Lord, for the Pope, and the Church.”
Carlo is the master mind behind the Eucharistic Miracles Exhibition, originally a website, that is touring the world. The entire website is in book form in Eucharistic Miracles of the World from the Vatican Exhibition. To order, see this link.
