A date for the long-awaited canonization of the world’s first Millennial saint has finally been set. Pope Leo XIV has picked Sept. 7 for the rescheduled canonization of Carlo Acutis, the young man who was known as “God’s Influencer.

Carlo Acutis, also known as 'God's Influencer,' will officially achieve sainthood on Sept. 7, 2025. He will become the first millennial saint and one of the first saints canonized by Pope Leo XIV when the event occurs.

Carlo Acutis, an Italian teenager, was meant to be made a saint in April, but the ceremony was postponed because of Pope Francis’ death.
