Blessed Carlo Acutis, The Tech Teen who found Jesus

Welcome to Vaticano, the weekly show that brings you the latest news and stories from the Vatican and around the world. In this week’s episode, we are excited to share with you the inspiring story of the first millennial blessed Carlo Acutis. 

Join us as we travel from Italy to the United States, Cambodia to Argentina, to learn about how Carlo’s charisma continues to inspire young people worldwide. We’ll also make a stop in a special season to see how the city is preparing for his beatification. 

Through interviews with those who knew him and those who have been touched by his life and legacy, we’ll explore the impact that Carlo has had on the Church and on the world. From his love for the Eucharist to his passion for technology, Carlo’s story is one that will inspire and uplift.
