Pope Leo proclaims Carlo Acutis and Pier Giorgio Frassati Saints
Pope Leo XIV proclaimed the Italians Pier Giorgio Frassati and Carlo Acutis as saints of the Church on Sunday, decreeing their veneration among the Catholic faithful.
The canonizations of the two men, promulgated before an estimated 70,000 people in St. Peter's Square, were the first of Leo's pontificate.
Below are two quotes that reflect the momentous occasion:
So Much Joy ! "To see so many youth and young adults here, exuberantly passionate for their faith gives me such hope for the Church. So much energy, so much devotion, so much joy" said American Dana Marie Buchanan who attended the canonizatoin of the two Saints.
What an honour to be here! "What an honour to be here from Australia to witness the canonization of two young Saints, the perfect examples for our modern times". said Australian Caroline Khouri." The joy in the atmosphere here is incredible and something I'll remember forever. St Carlo and St Pier.
