Legacy of the Acutis list

Acutis's exhibit has toured in many places across the world.

The listed miracles by Acutis were exhibited across the Archdiocese of Detroit, especially Dearborn. Therefore, children were inspired by the compiled lists that help them to "grow closer to the Lord in the Blessed Sacrament."[26] In Our Lady of Pity's Church, Staten Island, New York, the internationally renowned "Eucharist Miracles of the World" exhibition featured 75 panels that showcase the miracles around the world. This is considered an "inspiring testament to faith and devotion." It holds special significance to his canonization.[27]

List of miracle claims rejected by Church authorities

In the modern era, the Catholic Church's process of discerning miracle claims can conclude that an event was naturally caused.[28] This list includes miracle claims both outright rejected by the Church in this way, along with cases where a relevant Church authority explicitly declined to investigate a case.

Buffalo 2018 United States A red coloration was noticed on a host. Bishops of the Diocese of Buffalo declined to investigate. [34]
