Pope Leo XIV celebrated the canonization Mass of newly proclaimed Sts. Carlo Acutis and Pier Giorgio Frassati on Sept. 7, 2025, in St. Peter’s Square.
Pope Leo asked that everyone “feel in our hearts the same thing that Pier Giorgio and Carlo experienced: this love for Jesus Christ, especially in the Eucharist, but also in the poor, in our brothers and sisters.”
The pope received the offertory gifts from Antonia Salzano, mother of St. Carlo Acutis, and her family. From left to right are Francesca Acutis, Salzano, Andrea Acutis and Michele Acutis.
