TL;DR

Carlo Acutis, an Italian teenager and computer prodigy known as "God's influencer," is set to become the Catholic Church's first millennial saint after Pope Francis recognized a second miracle attributed to him. Acutis, who died from leukemia at age 15, used his tech skills to spread the Catholic faith and is remembered for his love of video games. His canonization is seen as a way for the Church to connect with younger generations.
