Carlo Acutis, who died at 15 in 2006, has long been called the 'patron saint of the internet.' After many years, two miracles and Vatican approval, he's officially set to be canonized, likely in 2025.

Monday's approval clears the final hurdle in a multiyear process, which began in 2013 when the pope approved the cause for his beatification and canonization and named him"a Servant of God." He brought those passions together by designing websites for his parish and school, before pursuing an even bigger project: documenting the reported Eucharistic miracles around the world.
