Mass on RTE News on Monday will be offered from Ardfinnan in thanksgiving for the news from The Vatican that Carlo Acutis will be canonised next April.
Fr Michael Toomey will give a brief homily about this millennial soon to be Saint Carlo, and the impact his short life has had already around the world, especially the youth.
The church in Holy Family, Ardfinnan, recently installed a statue of Blessed Carlo Acutis which has already attracted a large attendance from parishioners and school children across the local area.
The Mass will be broadcast on Monday 25th November at 10.30am on the RTE News Channel.
