Frassati, born in Turin in 1901, lived only 24 years, yet his short life shone with charity, friendship, and a deep love for the Eucharist.
Nearly a century later, Carlo Acutis carried the same torch of faith into the digital age. Born in 1991, he used his passion for computers to spread devotion to the Eucharist, creating a website and international exhibition on Eucharistic miracles as a teenager.
Finally, I sit down with the Vatican Cardinal responsible for the Causes of the Saints to discuss these two youthful examples of holiness.
Thank you for your continued support, and always remember: God has a plan for each of us, and He makes no mistakes,
