Ben’s piggy bank became food for orphaned children, a well of clean water in the Mekong Delta, and rice for the poor. His life, still giving — turning love into more love.

Best Friends in Heaven

Ben & Saint Carlo Acutis

Ben & Saint Carlo Acutis

Two faithful teenagers of the digital age, each called home at just fifteen — both by acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Carlo Acutis (1991–2006) loved the Eucharist above all, built a website chronicling Eucharistic miracles, and became the first millennial declared a saint. We believe Ben walks beside him now.

“The Eucharist is my highway to Heaven.” — St. Carlo Acutis
