To mark the canonisation of St Carlo Acutis, the first Millenium saint, and the lay Dominican St Pier Giorgio Frassati, parishioners around Ireland gathered for Mass, celebrations and processions on September 7. Additionally, Irish parishioners were among thousands who made the journey to Rome to watch Pope Leo canonise the young men in St Peter’s Square. In Dublin, all were welcome to join in a procession through the city centre in the afternoon, and in other dioceses across Ireland, congregations were blessed with first class relics of St Carlo Acutis.
