Crowds flock to newest Catholic saint in Assisi

Millennial teen's ordinariness is the draw for faithful

Hundreds of thousands of pilgrims have been pouring into the medieval hilltop town of Assisi in Italy to venerate the Catholic Church's newest saint. Carlo Acutis, the first millennial saint, will be formally canonized on April 27. The boy, who died in 2006 when he was 15, lies wearing sneakers and a sweatshirt in a shrine in a somber Assisi church honoring St. Francis. For his mother, the church, and the pilgrims, Acutis shows how a regular teen of today's world can achieve holiness — and inspire devotion uncommon in youth like him.
