Imagine being alive to witness your childhood friend become a saint. 🥹❤️ What a beautiful and surreal experience that must be! This video shows us little glimpses of St. Carlo Acutis’ life with his friends: the pictures, the laughter, the ordinary moments, and the beautiful memories they shared. I can only imagine what it must feel like to look through those old pictures and videos and realise that the boy you played with, laughed with, and shared ordinary childhood moments with is now a saint recognised by the Church. 🥹❤️ Imagine being able to say, “I knew him. We were friends. I have memories with a saint!” 😭❤️ And perhaps that is one of the most beautiful things about St. Carlo’s story. He reminds us that holiness is not reserved for people who lived centuries ago or those who did extraordinary things in the eyes of the world. Sometimes, saints are the very people we walk beside, laugh with, and share our everyday lives with. St. Carlo reminds us that we, too, can become saints. We do not have to wait until we are older or do something extraordinary to love God deeply. We can begin right where we are, with the little things we do every day, offering them all to God with love. ❤️ I am deeply inspired by St. Carlo Acutis. May his life remind us that we were all created for heaven, and holiness is possible even in the ordinary moments of our lives. Who knows? The people we laugh with and share our lives with today may one day inspire generations to come through their holiness. And may we, too, live lives that point others to Christ. 🥹🙏❤️ St. Carlo Acutis, pray for us! 🙏✨
