Blessed Carlo Acutis and Blessed Pier Giorgio Frassati were raised to the glory of the Saints
Loving God,
Early this morning our time, the Church rejoiced as Blessed Carlo Acutis and Blessed Pier Giorgio Frassati were raised to the glory of the Saints. We give You thanks for these young witnesses of faith, whose lives shine brightly for us today.
We thank You for Saint Carlo, who called the Eucharist his “highway to Heaven,” who shared the beauty of the faith with creativity and technology, and who reminds us that holiness is found in everyday life. We thank You for Saint Pier Giorgio, who brought friends to the mountains, brought food and comfort to the poor, and showed us that true greatness is found in joy, courage, and service.
Lord, may their example inspire our school communities to use our gifts generously and walk faithfully with Christ each day. We ask this through the intercession of Saint Carlo Acutis and Saint Pier Giorgio Frassati, now numbered among the saints in heaven.
Through Christ our Lord.
Amen.
