- Carlo Acutis, set to be the Catholic Church's first millennial saint, is drawing pilgrims to Assisi, Italy, where his remains are displayed.
- Carlo’s relatability as a modern teenager has contributed to his popularity, drawing over a million pilgrims to his shrine in Assisi.
- Born in London in 1991 and raised in Milan, Carlo was deeply religious from a young age, dedicating himself to daily Mass, prayer, and serving the homeless.
- He created an online exhibit about eucharistic miracles before dying of leukaemia in 2006 at age 15.
- His canonisation, attributed to two miracles, will occur on April 27 at St. Peter's Square, coinciding with the Holy Year's jubilee for teens.
