Thoughts and words of Carlo Acutis from A to Z

In our daily lives, overwhelmed by the thousand voices and the thousand tasks of history, we risk forgetting and paying little attention to the Lord, who speaks even today not only through the pages of the Holy Scriptures (...); he also speaks through the lives of so many men and women, consecrated and lay, adults, young people and children who, with the holiness of their lives, write in the folds of history another magisterium: one written directly by the Holy Spirit, who finds in these simple hearts, docile instruments to continue sculpting in other hearts the image of Christ. This is how Bishop Giuseppe Schillace presents Carlo Acutis, the Italian teenager who lived just 15 years, enough for many hearts to encounter Jesus.
