Saint Carlo Acutis shows that holiness is possible for everyone, at any age. His inspiring story aligns deeply with GrACE's mission for Catholic education.
Why Carlo Matters to GrACE:
Deep Eucharistic devotion: He called the Eucharist "my highway to Heaven."
Passion for serving others, especially the poor.
Authentic and meaningful faith, encouraging others to live as "originals," not copies.
Effective use of technology to share the Gospel and inspire others.
Building stronger communities through faith-based education.
Carlo’s Message to Us:
Students: Be courageous, use your unique gifts for Christ.
Educators: Inspire students beyond academics; form their hearts in holiness.
Families: Foster faith at home, creating a vibrant domestic Church.
“To always be close to Jesus, that is my life plan.”
– Carlo Acutis
In the demands of daily life, finding time to pray can be a challenge. Whether it’s work, school, or family responsibilities, prayer often gets overlooked. But what if it could be seamlessly integrated into daily routines—while commuting, cooking, or winding down?
The Surrender Prayer, given to us by Servant of God Don Dolindo Ruotolo, offers a simple yet transformative way to entrust our burdens to God. For those seeking deeper trust, the Surrender Novena provides a structured nine-day journey toward peace and faith, helping us relinquish control and embrace God’s divine providence.
