Pilgrimage of the First-Class Relic of Blessed Carlo Acutis

Join St. Joseph’s Parish, O’Connor! for a spiritually enriching event.

RE_News_w10t3.png

St Joseph’s are honoured to host the first-class relic of Blessed Carlo Acutis, the young "Cyber Apostle of the Eucharist." This rare and blessed opportunity offers a unique chance for the faithful to venerate and seek the intercession of a modern-day saint who has inspired millions worldwide. Blessed Carlo Acutis, beatified in 2020, was an Italian teenager who combined his profound faith with a passion for technology. Known for his Eucharistic devotion, Carlo created a website cataloguing Eucharistic miracles around the world. His life stands as a testament to how modern tools can be used to glorify God.
