Description: Carlo Acutis, an Italian teenager and computer prodigy known as "God's influencer," is set to become the Catholic Church's first millennial saint. Pope Francis has recognized a second miracle attributed to Acutis, who used his technological skills to spread awareness of the Catholic faith. Born in London in 1991, Acutis' faith was nurtured by his Polish nanny. After his death, his body was moved to Assisi, Italy, where it is displayed in a shrine. Acutis was beatified after his first miracle in 2020, and the next step is for the Pope to convene a meeting of cardinals to decide on his canonization. Acutis' story is seen as helpful for the Catholic Church in connecting with younger generations in the digital age.
