A London-born computer prodigy who died of leukemia as a teenager will be declared the Catholic Church's first millennial saint by Pope Francis after a string of miracles were attributed to him, The Daily Mail reports.

Carlo Acutis, who died in 2006 at the age of 15, earned the nicknames "God's influencer" and "patron saint of the Internet" because of his dedication to promoting the work of Christ online before his death. He donated his pocket money to the poor, and later at school he supported victims of bullying and spent his evenings cooking and delivering food to the homeless.

Before he died from leukemia, Carlo told his parents: "I'm happy to die because I lived my life without wasting a minute doing anything that God didn't like." 

And now, almost 20 years after his death, Pope Francis has acknowledged the miracle attributed to Carlo after his death. In 2022, the mother of a woman who was in a serious accident prayed at his grave and left a note asking him to heal her. That same day, her daughter began breathing on her own, and 10 days later she was discharged from intensive care.

Pope Francis has signed a decree that clears the way for Acutis to be canonized.

Carlo's body is on display in Assisi, but he was born in the UK to an Italian mother and a half-English, half-Italian father who worked in the UK as a merchant banker. The couple then moved to Milan, where their son ran the parish website. Also, he created an online database of miracles.

The Vatican also said Carlo cured a Brazilian boy suffering from a rare pancreas disease in 2013.

After his death, Carlo gained fans all over the world, and his body was transferred to the Church of Santa Maria Maggiore in Assisi, where it is currently on display.

Miracles, when reported, are examined by the Catholic Church to determine their authenticity and are understood to be acts that are inherently impossible. There is no date for canonization yet, but such events can attract a huge audience and thousands of pilgrims.
