Catholic Intelligence1 min read

Archbishop Delpini presided over the Pontifical Mass for All Saints at the Milan Cathedral on November 1. During his homily, he spoke of the saints who shaped Milan, beginning with Carlo Acutis.

Delpini suggested that Acutis offers a response to the unrest and violence involving local youth. He stated that Acutis would view these troubled adolescents with sympathy and compassion, offering them the joy found in seeing God through the Gospel.

The Archbishop noted that the many statues of the Virgin Mary and the saints in the Cathedral serve to remind the faithful that they pray in communion with those who intercede for the living.
