In case you missed it, our Catholic animation studio made a whole series of videos where you can pray with Thérèse of Lisieux and also with Carlo Acutis! Find all of our animations here.
Carlo always turned to prayer. His mother writes in My Son Carlo, when he was first sick and she thought he had the flu:
My son spent the rest of the day relaxing. He recited the Rosary with me, as he often asked me to do. It was natural for him to interrupt his daily activities to pray. His relationship with God was continuous, incessant. Everything he did, he thought of God, turning to him. His prayers helped him, as he said, to gather up energy and start the day’s activities with increased strength and serenity.
Why stories of the saints matter
“What if the journey of faith could come alive to our families and touch us the way our favorite movies and shows do? What if we remembered that the saints were once just like us, and only now they larger than life? What if their stories came to life in a way where we could get caught up into their heroism, sacrifices, love, ingenuity, perseverance, passion, and grit?
Our studio is a place were we pray the saints can assemble. Where they gather together in animated form to aid us on our hero's and heroine's journeys on our way to our King and Queen in the Heavenly City. Join us and the great ones who came before us as we walk, run, trip, and stumble our way through this valley of tears and triumphs. Taking our cues from Jesus, we follow Him home with a story and song.” — Lindsey Bruno, Creative Director
