About Carlo Acutis
Carlo Acutis was an ordinary teenager with an extraordinary love for the Eucharist. He put his gift for technology to work for God, building a website to catalogue the Church’s Eucharistic miracles.
He died of leukemia on October 12, 2006, at the age of fifteen, offering his suffering for the Pope and for the Church. Canonized as the patron of the Internet and of young people, he is often called “God’s influencer.”
Malvern Retreat House is home to the official shrine of Saint Carlo in the Archdiocese of Philadelphia.
“The Eucharist is my highway to heaven.”
