Diocese of Rome Prepares for Jubilee of Teenagers and Carlo Acutis' Canonization

The Diocese of Rome is preparing to welcome thousands of young pilgrims for the Jubilee of Teenagers, taking place from April 25 to April 27, 2025, culminating in the historic canonization of Blessed Carlo Acutis, the first millennial saint. In this special feature by EWTN, journalist Alexey Gotovsky explores how the Diocese, led by Fr. Alfredo Tedesco, Youth Pastoral Director, is mobilizing parishes, volunteers, and families to offer hospitality and engage meaningfully with today's youth.

EWTN's Senior Vatican Correspondent Hannah Brockhaus sits down with Fr. Tedesco to discuss the spiritual realities facing teenagers in Italy, the innovative approaches the Church is adopting—including digital evangelization and peer-to-peer ministry—and how the Diocese of Rome actively involves young people in leadership roles. As Pope Francis encourages youth to become protagonists in their faith journey, discover how the Church is creatively responding to this call.
