London-born Carlo Acutis was yesterday declared Britain's first millennial saint by Pope Leo XIV in a solemn ceremony at St Peter's Basilica. The 15-year-old, who died of leukemia in 2006, was raised to sainthood in the Pope's first-ever canonization service after the Vatican recognized Acutis as performing two miracles himself since his death. Now, pilgrims and worshippers from across the globe are flocking to Assisi to visit his tomb. If Acutis looks perfectly preserved, that's because a silicon mask of his face was constructed to conceal signs of decay. As per Catholic tradition, first-class relics - such as pieces of the Saint's hair, bone, or blood - are to be distributed to churches and shrines shortly.
