The 15 year old passed away in 2006.

A teenager dubbed "God's influencer" is set to become the first millennial saint.

London born Carlo Acutis died in 2006 at the age 15 from leukaemia and had a dedicated website documenting Eucharistic "miracles".

Two miracles have been attributed to the teen.

Statues of the soon to be saint depict Carlos with a backpack, wearing runners and holding a mobile phone.

Priest of Abbeyleix, Raheen & Ballinakill parishes, Father Paddy Byrne says Carlos will be a positive influence for young people:
