Retro Holy Card | St. Carlo Acutis

Get ready for Carlo Acutis' canonization! 🎉 Carlo Acutis—the first millennial saint— will be canonized soon, and we’re celebrating with an updated edition of one of our most beloved Retro Holy Cards. The Eucharist was his “highway to heaven,” and now this young, hoodie-wearing, tech-savvy teen will be officially recognized by the Church as a model of holiness for our time.

As a newly canonized saint, Carlo reminds us that sanctity isn’t reserved for the past. It’s for the here and now. And it’s for all of us.

These retro-inspired “heavy cards” from Spirit Juice are more than just beautiful prints—they’re built to last. Made from artisan-grade 32pt (380lb) cardstock, they’re as durable as they are meaningful. Whether tucked in your wallet, framed on your desk, or handed to a friend, they’re a tangible reminder that sainthood is possible—even in the digital age.

The small size is exactly credit card-sized, perfect for a wallet, Bible, or breviary. The medium is great for framing or standing proudly on your desk or nightstand. And each card includes a beautifully designed back featuring Bl. Carlo’s story, important dates, and a glimpse into why this modern saint continues to inspire the world.

Want to take him on the go? Our matching vinyl sticker is dishwasher-safe and made to stick around—just like Carlo’s legacy.

This card is part of our growing Patrons of Media collection—highlighting holy men and women who evangelized through the power of media. And there’s no better representative than Bl. Carlo himself, who used the internet to lead souls to Christ in the Eucharist.

Blessed Carlo Acutis 

Born: May 3, 1991 | Died: October 12, 2006

Bio: “What’s the use of winning 1,000 battles if you can't beat your own passions?” Blessed Carlo Acutis loved video games and ice cream, but when the call arose, he put these aside to help the poor, using his first savings to buy a homeless man a sleeping bag. Carlo's true passion was the Eucharist: "his highway to heaven". This led to his mother's conversion. At the age of 11, Carlo began to investigate the Eucharistic miracles that have occurred in history. He used all his computer knowledge and talents to create a website that traced that history. It comprises 160 panels and that have also made the rounds of more than 10,000 parishes in the world.Carlo could not understand why stadiums were full of people and churches were empty. He would repeatedly say, “They have to see, they have to understand."
