A London-born teenager who used his coding skills to spread the Catholic faith online will make history this Sunday when he becomes the Church's first millennial saint at a ceremony in St Peter's Square.
Carlo Acutis, who died of leukaemia aged 15 in 2006, will be canonised by Pope Leo XIV on 7 September alongside Pier Giorgio Frassati, marking the first saints proclaimed by the American pontiff since his election in May.
