BRIDGEPORT- The Diocese of Bridgeport’s office of The Pontifical Mission Society was recently awarded the Bl. Carlo Acutis Award for Excellence in Digital Engagement.
Bl. Carlo Acutis, the award’s namesake, was beatified for his development of a website cataloguing Eucharistic miracles around the world. His canonization is set to take place next year.
While other dioceses are struggling with a time consuming manual paper process, the Diocese of Bridgeport’s team has created an effective digital solution, which resulted in receiving this award.
Special thanks is extended to Christopher Gillespie and Astrid Alvarez for developing a working tool for managing the Coop Mission Sunday process.
