I don’t want flowers when I die…  User ID: 75140461  United States10/13/2020 09:08 AM  Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Blessed Carlo Acutis (3 May 1991 – 12 October 2006) was an Italian Catholic computer programmer.[3] He was best known for documenting Eucharistic miracles around the world and cataloguing them all onto a website that he created in the months before his death from leukemia.[3] He was noted for his cheerfulness and his computer skills as well as for his deep devotion to the Eucharist, which became a core theme of his life.[4] He was beatified on 10 October 2020.

Carlo Acutis is proving to the world that you don’t need to be rich, famous, crazy smart or the coolest kid in school to make an impact. He once said, “To be always close to Jesus, that’s my life plan.” And that’s what this teenager exemplified in the short time he spent on this earth. Carlo Acutis did little things with faithfulness, love and joy, and therefore, barely a few years after his death in 2006, he had already gained a huge following all over the world. This young computer programmer, who grew up in Milan, Italy, has been able to captivate both the young and old alike because of his simple yet deep faith, which was filled with a burning love for the Lord, especially in the Eucharist. His friends remember him saying, “Every day I live the Holy Communion as a constant dialogue with Jesus, as an authentic hope. The Eucharist is my freeway to heaven!” [link to catholic-link.org (secure)] https://imgur.com/vgmC5YPPicture of his incorrupted body. Blessed Carlo died 14 years ago.
