Miracles performed by teen born in UK dubbed 'God's influencer' as he will become a saint tomorrow

Here are the two miracles performed by the teenager posthumously referred to as 'God's influencer', who will officially be made a saint by the Catholic Church tomorrow.

Carlo Acutis was born in London to Italian parents, but spent most of his young life living in Milan. The teenager would pass away at just 15-years-old after being diagnosed with leukaemia, but not before he was able to leave his mark on the Catholic faith.

Acutis would receive his first holy communion at seven, and by the age of 11 he was sharing stories about miracles and saints on his online blog.

He would also attend daily mass and spend his days helping out the less fortunate and by the time of his death in 2006, he was already a known figure in the church.

However, it was in the years after his death that Acutis' legend would grow, as several miracles were attributed to his name.

What miracles did Carlo Acutis perform?

In 2012, a young Brazilian boy named Mattheus Vianna travelled to the grave of Acutis to receive guidance on dealing with a rare pancreatic disorder.

Underweight and unable to keep food down, Vianna is said to have touched a relic belonging to Acutis and said: "I wish I could stop vomiting."

After the visit, the boy would begin to show signs of improved health and by 2014, baffled doctors were able to confirm the boy was cured.

The incident boosted Acutis' profile amongst followers of the church, with the teenager being entombed at the Sanctuary of the Spoliation church in Assisi, Italy.

Acutis was also beatified, the first step towards canonisation, by the Catholic Church in 2020.

A second miracle would be attributed to Acutis two years later, when the mother of a student involved in a bicycle accident prayed at the tomb in Assisi.

Valeria Valverde, a Costa Rican national, suffered a head injury while cycling in Florence and was left in a critical condition. However, she would make a full recovery after her mother's trip to Assisi, prompting Pope Francis to recognise the act as Acutis' second miracle.

This meant that Acutis was now eligible to be made a saint, with his canonisation originally set to take place back in April.

The ceremony was ultimately delayed due to the death of Pope Francis, but his successor, Pope Leo XIV, will now canonise Acutis tomorrow (7 September) alongside Pier Giorgio Frassati, making 'God's influencer' the world's first millennial saint.
