At the age of 11 began to investigate the Eucharistic miracles that have occurred throughout the world. Acuitis couldn’t understand why the churches were empty. He grew passionate for the Eucharist and asked his parents to take him to various Eucharistic shrines. He said “They have to see; they have to understand”. Carlo’s felt the Eucharist is “his highway to heaven” He used all his technology knowledge and talents to create a website that traced the history and comprised 160 panels that he completed shortly before death at age 15 from leukemia. These are available on by miracoulieucaristic.org
When Acutis developed leukemia as a teenager, he offered up his suffering for Pope Benedict XVI and the Church. He was quoted as saying, "I offer all the suffering I will have to suffer for the Lord, the Pope, and the Church." Carlo Acutis was beatified October 2020 by Pope Francis. A miracle was attributed to him in November of 2019. In that miracle, a seven-year-old child who was born with a pancreatic defect was miraculously healed. She prayed to Acutis, asking for his intercession and shortly after, the defect was miraculously cured. Carlo Acutis's feast day is October 12, and he is a patron for computer programmers and youth.
He was born in February 1877 at Seville, Spain. Manuel entered he seminar at age 12 in 1889. In September 1901, he became a priest in the bishopric’s chapel of Seville. The reality when he arrived, was a Church poorly attended and neglected. He described it as someone “in desperate need of a friend.” His words: “My faith was looking at Jesus through the door of that tabernacle, so silent, so patient, so good, gazing right back at me…His gaze was telling me much and asking me for more. It was a gaze in which all the sadness of the Gospels was reflected; the sadness of ‘no room in the Inn”; the sadness of those words, “Do you also want to leave me?”; the sadness of poor Lazarus begging for crumbs from the rich man’s table; the sadness of the betrayal of Judas, the denial of Peter, of the soldier’s slap, of the spittle of the Praetorium, and the abandonment of all St Manuel González García was beatified in April 2001 by Pope John Paul II and the beatification miracle involved the healing of Sara Ruiz Ortega, then 18 years, of tuberculosis peritonitis which had left her paralyzed. He was canonized in October 2016 by Pope Francis and the canonization involved the healing of a Galician woman who suffered from aggressive lymphoma. St Manuel is a Patron Saint of Children of Reparation, Disciples of Saint John and Eucharistic Missionaries of Nazareth. The life and mission of St. Manuel was entirely and explicitly Eucharistic. “Jesus is with us in each and every tabernacle on earth! Do not abandon Him!”
