二零二零年十月十日,卡洛在亞西西的聖方濟各聖殿獲列品真福。教宗希望人們能以卡洛為榜樣,深愛天主和聖母瑪利亞,特別是小朋友和青少年。宣福禮進行時,卡洛的遺體被放進一副玻璃棺木裏,好讓所有人都能看到他。儘管他在數年前去世的,但看起來只像沉睡的樣子。他穿着牛仔褲和運動鞋,一切就像最普通不過的事,他亦像是個平凡不過的男孩……卡洛的事蹟,讓我們明白,所有平凡的男孩和女孩都有機會成為聖人的。

Carlo was beatified on October 10 in 2020 in the Basilica in Assisi. It means the Pope set Carlo as an example to be followed by all people and especially by children and teenagers. During the ceremony, his body was displayed in a glass coffin so that everybody could see him. Although he had died several years before, he still looked as though he had just fallen asleep. He was wearing jeans and sports shoes, as an ordinary boy of his age. Because, after all, any ordinary boy and any ordinary girl can become a saint.
