Assisi: The tomb of Carlo Aquitas, who lived a life of deep devotion to God and was called to the heavenly gift in 2006, has been opened for worship. Carlo’s tomb, located in the Sanctuary of Spolation in Assisi, has been opened today ahead of the October 10 announcement of the Blessed Sacrament. A spokesman for the organization, which works on the naming of Aquitas, told the Catholic News Agency that some of Carlo’s body parts were not decomposed but could not be said to be completely decomposed.
The Rector of the Sanctuary of Spoil, Fr. Carlos Acacio Gonzalez Ferreira explains to the Eternal World Television Network. He also revealed that the organs were intact. “For the first time in history, we see a saint wearing jeans and shoes,” he added. Carlo’s body is now dressed in the usual clothes he wore when he was alive. The church will remain open to visitors until October 17. Carlo’s mother, Antonio Salsano, also attended today’s ceremony.
