The Catholic church will soon have its first millennial saint, a young man who became known as Gods influencer after his death at the age of 15.

On Monday, Vatican News reported that Pope Francis and the College of Cardinals voted to approve the canonization of Italian teenager Carlo Acutis, who passed away from leukemia in 2006.

Born in London, England, on May 3, 1991, and raised in Italy, Acutis will be the first person born in the millennial age bracket to be recognized as a saint.

The late teen was a video game lover and web designer who used the internet to share the gospel and document miracles inspired by the Eucharist, the Catholic sacrament in which bread and wine is blessed and recognized by believers as the body and blood of Jesus Christ.

Acutis was posthumously credited with interceding in two miracles, feats which are required by Catholic doctrine to attain sainthood.

Acutis is said to be responsible for healing a young Brazilian boy diagnosed with an annular pancreas, a rare congenital disease, after the boys mother had him kiss a piece of cloth which once belonged to the devout teen.
