First Class Relic of Blessed Carlo Acutis to visit St Patrick’s Cathedral

A first class relic of Blessed Carlo will visit the Cathedral from Sunday 11 – Tuesday 13 June 2023. Blessed Carlo was beatified by Pope Francis in Assisi in October 2020. His friends remember him as a young dreamer, service-oriented and full of charisma. He died in 2006, at only 15 years of age, after a battle with leukaemia. His life may have been short but it made a huge impact. Recently, in the process for the teenager’s beatification, his tomb became a real pilgrimage site.

 

Dear Father, who has given us the ardent testimony of the young Servant of God Carlo Acutis, who made the Eucharist the core of his life and the strength of his daily commitments so that everybody may love you above all else, let him soon be counted among the blessed and the saints in your Church. Confirm my faith, nurture my hope, strengthen my charity in the image of young Carlo who growing in these virtues, now lives with you. Grant me the grace I really need…..I trust in you Father and your beloved Son Jesus, in the Virgin Mary our dearest mother, and in the intervention of your servant Carlo Acutis. AMEN

 

Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory be

 

"Always to be united with Jesus, that is my life’s programme”. Carlo Acutis
