Days 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 - Come Holy Spirit: Learn the Latin & Music related to this Consecration Prayer, Veni Creator Spiritus
Reflect on "kit" created by Bl. Carlo Acutis which his mother lists in her book regarding "how to become a Saint"
VENI, Creator Spiritus,
mentes tuorum visita,
imple superna gratia
quae tu creasti pectora.
COME, Holy Spirit, Creator blest,and in our souls take up Thy rest;come with Thy grace and heavenly aidto fill the hearts which Thou hast made.Qui diceris Paraclitus,
altissimi donum Dei,
fons vivus, ignis, caritas,
et spiritalis unctio.
O comforter, to Thee we cry,O heavenly gift of God Most High,O fount of life and fire of love, and sweet anointing from above.Tu, septiformis munere,
digitus paternae dexterae,
Tu rite promissum Patris,
sermone ditans guttura.
Thou in Thy sevenfold gifts are known;Thou, finger of God's hand we own;Thou, promise of the Father, ThouWho dost the tongue with power imbue.Accende lumen sensibus:
infunde amorem cordibus:
infirma nostri corporis
virtute firmans perpeti.
Kindle our sense from above, and make our hearts o'erflow with love; with patience firm and virtue high the weakness of our flesh supply.Hostem repellas longius,
pacemque dones protinus:
ductore sic te praevio
vitemus omne noxium.
Far from us drive the foe we dread, and grant us Thy peace instead; so shall we not, with Thee for guide, turn from the path of life aside.Per te sciamus da Patrem,
noscamus atque Filium;
Teque utriusque Spiritum
credamus omni tempore.
Oh, may Thy grace on us bestow the Father and the Son to know; and Thee, through endless times confessed, of both the eternal Spirit blest.Deo Patri sit gloria,
et Filio, qui a mortuis
surrexit, ac Paraclito,
in saeculorum saecula.
Amen.
Now to the Father and the Son,Who rose from death, be glory given, with Thou, O Holy Comforter, henceforth by all in earth and heaven.Amen.

HOW TO BECOME A SAINT by: Bl. CARLO ACUTIS
Try to go to mass every day and take holy Communion
If you can, try to spend a few minutes in Eucharistic adoration before the tabernacle where Jesus is truly present. In this way, you’ll see how your level of holiness increases!
Remember to recite the holy Rosary every day.
Read a passage from holy Scripture every day.
If you can, confess every week, even for venial sins.
Make promises often to God and the Virgin to help others.
Ask your guardian angel, who must become your best friend, for help.
