Day 4
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.
Amen.
Most Holy Trinity, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, I adore You profoundly and thank You for all the favors and graces with which You enriched the soul of St. Carlo Acutis during the fifteen years he spent on this earth. Through the merits, in Christ Jesus, of this beloved example for young people, grant me the grace I ardently ask of You:
Meditation
"For a hot-air balloon to rise, it must drop its weights. In the same way, for the soul to rise to Heaven, it must cast off even venial sins. If there is a mortal sin, the soul falls to the earth, and confession is like the fire that makes the balloon rise again. We must confess often."
St. Carlo Acutis, you who lived the Sacrament of Reconciliation so well, grant me the grace to approach confession frequently with profound contrition. Amen.
Our Father × 5
Hail Mary × 5
Glory Be × 5
Heavenly Father, You gave us St. Carlo Acutis, filled with love for the Eucharist and a joyful heart to share the Gospel. Through his witness, You remind us that holiness is not distant or unattainable, but possible in the ordinary events of our lives. St. Carlo, intercede for us, that we may love Jesus as you did, see Him in the poor and forgotten, and use our gifts for God. Through Christ our Lord. Amen.
St. Carlo Acutis, pray for us.
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.
Amen.
