St. Carlo Acutis Plush 4.75"
Carlo Acutis was born on May 3, 1991, in London and grew up in Milan, Italy. A cheerful teenager who loved
soccer, video games, and his friends, Carlo had a remarkable gift for computers — and he gave that gift to God,
building a website that shared the Church’s Eucharistic miracles with the whole world. He attended Mass every
day and called the Eucharist his “highway to heaven.” When leukemia took his life in 2006, at just fifteen,
Carlo offered his sufferings for the Pope and the Church. Canonized by Pope Leo XIV in 2025 as the first
millennial saint, he now draws young pilgrims from every nation to his tomb in Assisi.
Saint Carlo Acutis teaches us that holiness is found in everyday life — and no one is too young to be a
saint.
Feast Day: October 12 | First Millennial Saint

WHAT MAKES HIM SPECIAL
This plush is hand-designed by Little Drops of Water and crafted in soft, cuddle-ready fabric. He wears the
everyday clothes of a modern teenager — a track jacket, jeans, and sneakers, with a backpack at his shoulder —
the millennial saint, just as his generation knew him. At about 4.75 inches, he is small enough for the
littlest hands and easy to bring along — to Mass, in the car, or wherever a small companion is needed.
Every Catholic Plush Doll from Little Drops of Water is hand-designed and made to be loved — soft to hold,
with embroidered features and no hard pieces, so a child’s first encounter with a saint is something gentle,
huggable, and entirely their own.
A REFLECTION
Carlo Acutis loved soccer and video games and was, by every account, an ordinary teenager — who became a
saint by giving his ordinary days to God. He called the Eucharist his “highway to heaven.” To keep him near
brings a saint of our own time close, a reminder that holiness isn’t reserved for long ago or far away — it
begins in everyday life, at any age.
