Local faithful excited for canonization
STUART | When Blessed Carlo Acutis formally becomes St. Carlo during a canonization Mass with Pope Leo XIV at the Vatican Sunday, Sept. 7, a teacher and students at a local school will be closely watching.
Classrooms at St. Joseph Catholic School in Stuart are named for saints, and teacher Chris Francello got permission to make Blessed Carlo their patron, anticipating him eventually becoming a saint. Francello and her students learn about him and find ways to add him to their everyday lives. When the Florida Catholic visited the classroom in April, the students added, “St. Carlo Acutis, pray for us,” when prompted by their teacher.
