Blessed Carlo Acutis will be the first Millennial to become a saint. His canonization is scheduled for Sunday, April 27th, 2025, as part of the Jubilee of Teenagers being hosted in Rome for the Jubilee Year: Pilgrims of Hope.

In preparation for his canonization, the Diocesan Youth Ministry Office is inviting the people of the Diocese to pray a novena to Blessed Carlo, for the intentions of the young people of our diocese. May the Holy Spirit stir their faith to be active disciples in their daily lives, just as Blessed Carlo did. The novena will begin on Saturday, April 19th, and conclude on Sunday, April 27th. The prayers are included in a printable document below.
