Blessed Carlo Acutis will become canonized in April 2025 during the Jubilee of Teenagers to become the first millennial saint. This oval medal, St. Carlo Acutis necklace is crafted from the finest sterling silver and measures 7/8"H x 5/8"W. His feast day is October 12 and the medal hangs on a 20" surgical stainless steel chain. Acutis was an Italian teenage techie who loved coding, video games, soccer, and animals. He acted on his constant pursuit of holiness and was faith-filled teenager. Many young people can identify with his being a little “different” at school and in the pizzerias, and on the soccer field. In addition to his fun hobbies, he spent time teaching catechism classes and serving in soup kitchens. Carlo loved to attend daily Mass and frequent Eucharistic adoration. The Word of God and the Eucharist were the center of his life. Carlo’s unwavering devotion to the Eucharist inspired him to tell the story of Eucharistic miracles through a website he created just for fun. He wanted to deepen his own knowledge of these phenomena, to strengthen his devotion to Jesus, and to invite others to grow in love for the Eucharist. The website subsequently caught the attention of people across the globe, introducing countless people to Eucharistic miracles.
The front of this handsome St. Carlo Acutis medal on the necklace depicts him standing with hands in prayer and holding a rosary. In addition, the words, “St. Carlo Acutis” and “Pray for Us” are engraved along the outside border. The back of the medal is blank giving you an opportunity to have a date or message added so he remembers your love and support over time by taking it to your local engraver. The St. Carlo Acutis necklace makes a great personalized gift for Confirmation, First Communion, or other special occasions.
