Catholic Activist to Newsmax: Canonizations Show All Are Called to Be Saints

The canonizations of Pier Giorgio Frassati and Carlo Acutis by Pope Leo XIV on Sunday should inspire every believer to strive for sainthood, film producer and Catholic activist Eduardo Verastegui told Newsmax on Monday.

On “American Agenda,” Verastegui said the historic moment was “an amazing inspiration” and a reminder that holiness is not reserved for a few, but a calling for all.

“These incredible young men were not afraid to ask God every day to help them to be saints,” Verastegui said. “We are all called to be saints, and we cannot be afraid of that. We’re all broken, but with humility we can get on our knees every day and ask God for help.”
