This week, on Sunday, September 7, at 10 a.m., Pope Leo XIV will canonize Blessed Carlo Acutis (1991–2006), who died tragically young at the age of 15 from leukemia. Taking advantage of the opportunities offered by the internet, he created an informative website aimed at young people, which collects and catalogues Eucharistic miracles that have occurred around the world. It is no coincidence that he is revered today as the patron saint of youth and the internet. From Sunday, he will be the first saint of Generation Y.
