During the Jubilee Year Pope Francis will canonize a number of saint. Of particular interest to many in our Archdiocese is the canonization of Blessed Carlo Acutis on April 27, appropriately during the Jubilee of Teenagers. A relic of blessed Carlo made its first visit to Canada during our Eucharistic Congress in October 2024.  At that time Archbishop Dunn and the Archdiocese was gifted our very own relic of Blessed Carlo.
