“The Eucharist is my highway to Heaven.” – Blessed Carlo Acutis

This June, the Church prepares to canonize one of the most extraordinary young witnesses of our time: Blessed Carlo Acutis. And here at Tabella, we’re inviting you — and your whole community — to join us in a 9-day Novena beginning June 4th, leading up to his canonization on June 13th!

Who Was Blessed Carlo Acutis?

Born in London on May 3, 1991, to Italian parents, Carlo grew up in Italy and showed a deep love for the Catholic faith from an early age — even though his family wasn’t particularly religious at the time. He would ask to visit churches, attend daily Mass, and spend time in Eucharistic Adoration, where his love for Jesus in the Eucharist grew tremendously.

He famously referred to the Eucharist as his "highway to Heaven", and his devotion was the driving force of his short but radiant life.

But Carlo wasn’t just a saint-in-the-making — he was also a tech whiz! By the age of nine, he was already coding and building websites. He used his skills to create a digital archive of Eucharistic miracles from around the world, hoping to help others fall in love with the Eucharist just as he had. His website is still online today and continues to inspire thousands.

A Modern Saint for a Modern World

Carlo was known not only for his intellect and faith but also for his tender heart and everyday holiness. He often helped the homeless, stood up for those who were bullied, and made everyone around him feel seen and loved.

In 2006, at just 15 years old, Carlo was diagnosed with leukemia. He accepted his illness with grace, offering his suffering for the Pope and the Church. He passed away on October 12, 2006, leaving behind a legacy of love, charity, and deep devotion.

In 2020, he was beatified by Pope Francis, and this year — in 2025 — he will be officially canonized by Pope Leo XIV. His life is a powerful reminder that sainthood is possible even in the digital age.

Pray the Novena with Tabella 🙏

Whether you’re a student, parent, teacher, or tech-lover, Carlo’s life can inspire you to holiness in your everyday life. Invite your communities to join us for a 9-day Novena beginning June 4th in either English or Spanish!

📲 Pray with us here:

Let’s come together in prayer as we celebrate the life and upcoming sainthood of this modern-day witness of Christ.

Blessed Carlo Acutis, pray for us!

Amen to That!
