Saint Patrick’s Apostolate

Blessed Carlo Acutis is the first millennial to be beatified. Known 'as the kid in jeans and sneakers,' he died of leukaemia at just 15 years of age in 2006. Blessed Carlo had a passion for holiness, focusing his life on the Eucharist in order to grow in his relationship with Jesus: 'The more we receive the Eucharist,' he said, 'the more we will become like Jesus.' Carlo tried to attend Mass every day and spend time in prayer at Eucharistic Adoration, believing that 'when we put ourselves before Jesus in the Eucharist, we become saints.'

The visit of the holy relic will include the launching of a new book, Blessed Carlo Acutis: Light the Flame of Faith, by Monsignor Figueiredo, written specifically for Ireland. We are also promoting the official Irish and uk song in honour of Blessed Carlo soon to be Saint called, Carlo Acutis and The Living Bread available on iTunes and all major streaming outlets.
