Carlo Acutis, an Italian teenager who loves to play video games and shoots funny pet videos, was canonized by Pope Legitimate on Sunday, becoming the first “millennial” saint in the Catholic Church. Akutis died of leukemia in 2006 at the age of 15. He used his computer skills to spread the Catholic faith and established a website to record the occurrence of miracles. He is known as the “Initiator of God” and a pioneer of the church’s evangelization in the digital world.

Akutis often wears jeans, T-shirts and sneakers, which is very different from the traditional saint image. As a saint who is loved by young people, he has won many followers around the world.

Acutis was born in London, England and has long been known as a “computer prodigy”. According to British media reports, Acutis showed a series of miracles after his death. He was originally sacred by the late Pope Francis, but now he was sacred by the 14th generation.
Miracle after leukemia dies
After Acutis’ death, his body was placed on display in Assisi, Italy. It is reported that a woman had a life hanged on the line in a car accident. After running to Acutis’ coffin to pray, her daughter resumed self-breathing. After 10 days, her cerebral hemorrhage disappeared and she was finally discharged from the hospital after recovering. Another Brazilian boy suffering from pancreatic disease was cured because of “Akutis’ plea to the Lord.”

Thousands of young people attended the ceremony at St. Peter’s Square on Sunday. A large crowd waving slogans and flags with photos of Akutis. After Pope Levitra canonized the young man, the rejoicing bystanders applauded and cheered.
On the same day, another young man was canonized, Pier Giorgio Frassatti, who died in 1925, was 24 years old.
Although long-term trends in the West suggest young people are increasingly detached from mainstream religions, recent investigations and anecdotal evidence suggests that Generation Z interest in Catholicism has increased in the United States and Europe.
