About this sermon
Reaction is pouring in after the Vatican said that Blessed Carlo Acutis is set to be canonized. Bishop Robert Barron told Our Sunday Visitor, "Blessed Carlo Acutis is an inspiration and intercessor for all young people, but especially for those who are drifting away or alienated from the Church or who are skeptical about religion." Host of the Miracle Hunter, Saturdays at 7pm on EWTN Radio, Michael O'Neill, joins to share his thoughts on the news that Blessed Carlo Acutis is set to be canonized, what his initial reaction was and what this could mean for young people. O'Neill tells us about the timing of this. Blessed Carlo Acutis died in 2006. He discusses whether this is quicker than usual for someone to be set for canonization. He explains whether this is a sign that in the digital age, it might be quicker and easier to prove or even disprove miracles. Blessed Carlo Acutis was only 15 years old when he died of leukemia. O'Neill fills us in on how this compares to the age of other saints. ------------ EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
