Our Pastor's Messages A NEW SAINT FOR OUR TIME: CARLO ACUTIS 
Dear family,
This Sunday, September 7, something very special is happening in Rome. Blessed Carlo Acutis is being made a saint. That means the Church is officially recognizing that Carlo lived a holy life and is now in heaven with God. Carlo was just fifteen years old when he died in 2006. He loved Jesus very much, especially in the Eucharist. He went to Mass every day and spent time praying in front of the Blessed Sacrament. Carlo also loved computers. He used his tech skills to make a website that shows Eucharistic miracles from around the world. You can visit it at www.miracolieucaristici.org or scan the QR code here in this message. Carlo wanted everyone to know how amazing Jesus is in the Eucharist. Even though Carlo was young, he showed great kindness and faith. He helped people who were poor, stood up for kids who were bullied, and always tried to live like a friend of Jesus. He once said, "The Eucharist is my highway to heaven." Now, Carlo is becoming a saint—someone we can look up to and ask to pray for us. He shows us that you don't have to be old or famous to live a holy life. You just have to love God and others with all your heart. Carlo used his talents to help others and share his love for Jesus. What is one gift or interest you have that you could use to bring kindness or faith to someone? God's peace, Fr. Frisoni
