Who is Carlo Acutis, the computer prodigy who died at 15 and is to be first millennial saint?
Summary
A teenager with leukaemia who used his computer skills to spread faith is about to become the first millennial saint. Carlo Acutis, who died at 15 in 2006, will be canonised next week after two miracles were attributed to him, including a boy’s recovery from a rare disorder and a woman’s swift healing after an accident. The Vatican’s sainthood process requires such奇迹, and Acutis, known for his compassion and faith, will be celebrated in Assisi, where he is buried as per his wishes. His life story—a blend of tech talent, kindness, and unwavering devotion—has drawn global attention, with tens of thousands expected to attend his canonisation in St Peter’s Square.
