In light of the recent passing of Pope Francis and the postponement of the canonization of Bl. Carlo Acutis by the Vatican, Springbank Catholic’s Mario Kart & Canonization Event scheduled for Sunday, April 27, at St. George Parish has been postponed until further notice. We will await further direction from the Vatican regarding the new date of Carlo’s canonization, and we will communicate updated local event details once determined.
​
We appreciate your understanding and prayers during this time of mourning and reflection for our global Church family. Please continue to keep Pope Francis in your prayers.
More information and resources about the passing of our Holy Father will be shared in the coming days.

Bl. Carlo Acutis was born May 3, 1991, and diagnosed with leukemia as a teenager. Before his death in 2006, he shared his love of God throughout his life, and especially remembered for leveraging his computer skills and fluency of the internet to share of Jesus' Real Presence in the Eucharist.
Carlo loved playing video games, through which he had conversations with his gaming buddies about the importance of going to Mass and Confession. Join us in remembering Carlo by playing games as he loved to do, and in celebrating the canonization of the Church's first millennial saint!
