Carlo Acutis: Roadmap to Reality 

The EDGE & Youth Ministry adult volunteers had the opportunity to attend the movie Carlo Acutis: Roadmap to Reality back in April. I have been watching eagerly for it's release for at home viewing. This film left a lasting impression on all of us who attended, and we want to share it with all of you. If you had the opportunity to view it in theaters, I'd be interested in hearing about how it impacted you in your life?  If you weren't able to see it, we are working on a watch party at St. Mary's later this summer so please watch for future bulletin and announcements for details. Here is a short description of the film: A new documentary film titled "Carlo Acutis: Roadmap to Reality" explores the life of the first millennial saint, Carlo Acutis. The film follows teens on a phone-free pilgrimage to Acutis' tomb, immersing them in his story and his passion for Christ. It also examines how technology affects us and explores the idea of authentic human connection and spiritual depth in the digital age. 

I was inspired to begin the series on ways to stay connected to faith and the love of Jesus through our phones after seeing this documentary. This week's series is the new global streaming platform called CREDO for faith-driven content launched worldwide in May and serves as the exclusive streaming home of “Carlo Acutis: Roadmap to Reality,” the top-grossing faith-based documentary of the year at the box office. CREDO allows filmmakers to showcase their work, connect directly with audiences, and earn fair compensation while viewers enjoy on-demand, a la carte rentals with no subscriptions or recurring fees. Content can be viewed on computers, mobile devices, and on smart TVs.
