Get to know Blessed Carlo Acutis

Now that Blessed Carlo Acutis is the co-patron of our school, it's time to get to know him. He was a young millennial, who loved Jesus and brought others to the faith, even though he died at age 15!

Our OLS students have been very interested in learning about him; he is the first millennial to be beatified, and he lived until he was only 15 years old. His interests in soccer, swimming, and computers are relatable to our students, and because he was close in age to our middle schoolers, they are curious about how he is on the pathway to sainthood at such a young age. He is a role model for all, not only the students, because of his devotion to the Rosary, Mary, and the Holy Eucharist.
