By: The Good Newsroom

On September 28, parents and young people were invited to Immaculate Conception-Assumption of Our Lady Parish in Tuckahoe, NY to hear a talk by Ms. Antonia Salzano Acutis, mother of Blessed Carlo Acutis, about raising the first millennial to be beatified by the Catholic Church.

Carlo was an Italian teenager who lived a life of extraordinary virtue, including dedicating his time to helping the homeless and his struggling peers, documenting eucharistic miracles, and bringing others, including his mother, closer to God.

He died from leukemia in 2006 when he was only 15 years old. In 2020, Pope Francis declared him a “Blessed,” the last step before being declared a saint.

Today, Ms. Salzano Acutis shares her son’s legacy with the world.
