London-born teenager to be canonised as saint after miraculous recognition by Pope Francis

Carlo Acutis passed away in 2006 at the age of 15 due to leukaemia. Despite his short life, he made a big impact, leading the Vatican to recognize him for inspiring miracles. Carlo dedicated his life to spreading awareness about what he believed to be divine intervention. He lived in Milan, surrounded by many churches, which allowed him to attend mass frequently. At the age of seven, something happened that changed his life and set him on a path that would make him part of history. Carlo's ordinary life became extraordinary because of his strong faith in Jesus and the good deeds he did. Carlo was a typical teenager who enjoyed playing the saxophone, football, and making home movies of his pets. He also taught children about religion, helped them with homework, volunteered in a soup kitchen, and used the internet to share his beliefs. In 2006, before his passing, Carlo seemed to sense something ominous approaching. After his funeral, claims of miracles attributed to Carlo began to surface. His pure and selfless actions were seen as miraculous in a world filled with negativity. Carlo Acutis, known as "God's influencer," used his computer skills to spread the Catholic faith. He was beatified in 2020 after two miracles were attributed to him by Pope Francis. The first miracle involved curing a Brazilian boy of a serious birth defect, while the second miracle healed a girl from Costa Rica with a head trauma. Carlo's dedication to evangelization through the internet led to him being named a patron of World Youth Day in Lisbon. Carlo's life and work have left a lasting impact, with his website documenting Eucharistic miracles being translated into multiple languages and used for exhibitions worldwide. His legacy is honored in various places, including the establishment of the Parish of Blessed Carlo Acutis in the UK. Miracles attributed to individuals are carefully investigated before they can be considered for sainthood, with two miracles typically required for canonization.
