Pope Liu announces the teenager, known as “God’s influencer”, and he is a saint Religion news

Carlo Akotis, a digital pioneer, used his computer skills to spread Catholic teaching worldwide.

An Italian teenager was born in London, known as “God’s influence”, who was an early adoption of the Internet to spread Catholic teachings, the first Millennium saint in the church at a ceremony led by Pope Liu XIV in the Vatican.

Leo cleared Carlo Akotis, who died in 2006 at the age of 15, at a ceremony attended by thousands on Sunday in Saint Peter Square. In the Mass, the Pope was also rising Pierre Georgio Franrati, who died in 1924 but was widely recognized for his charitable work.

During a speech at this event, Liu attributed Acuteis and Frasati to create “masterpieces” of their lives, and they warned of retirees that “the greatest danger in life is to waste it outside the plan of God.”

Often, a photographer was seen in his unofficial clothes, with dirty hair, shirts and sunglasses, actuis cuts a different character from the church saint who was often photographed in official paintings. This has built global followers of Acuteis, where the Church intends to be a more associated saint for young people who focus digitally today.

Liu said that ACUTIS and Frasati’s life is “an invitation to all of us, especially young people, not to calm our lives, but to direct them up and make it masterpieces.”

Akotis was born in London in 1991 but moved early in his life to the northern Italian city of Milan with his family, where he lived until he died due to leukemia in 2006.

When he was a teenager, Acuteis taught himself coding and programming, using the skills he gained to document the recognized church miracles to spread Catholic teaching worldwide. His leading digital efforts occurred at a time when reading and writing on these topics was widely spread.

It is also believed that he regularly attended the services of the church, and he was nice with the homeless and children who suffered bullying, which he loved for Catholic youth in the world.

Pope Francis, whose death in April of this year led to a delay at the Saint -making ceremony in favor of Acuteis, that the teenager carried out two miracles during his life. According to the Catholic News Agency, Acuteis cursed a boy with a birth defect that affects the pancreas and a girl who was injured in Costa Rica.

In the 2019 message to Catholics, Pope Francis admitted Acuteis, saying: “It is true that the digital world can endanger you at the risk of self -absorption, isolation and empty pleasure.” He added: “But do not forget that there are young people even there they show creativity and even genius. This was the case with the distinguished Carlo Akotis.”

The body of ACUTIS, covered with wax, lies in a glass grave in Assisi, a medieval city in central Italy, a pilgrimage site visited by hundreds of thousands of people annually. The Church of the Lady of Dolls in London, where she was also baptized, attracted increasing numbers of visitors. Part of his heart was removed from his body as residue and was shown in churches worldwide.
