The canonization of Blessed Carlo Acutis, who is set to become the first millennial saint, has been deferred following the death of Pope Francis on April 21, the Vatican said.
During a recent homily, Pope Francis delivered a powerful message on the importance of service over power, drawing from Jesus' encounter with the disciples James and John in the Gospel of Mark.
The first millennial saint, Carlo Acutis, with 14 other blessed will be canonized, according to the College of Cardinals who formalized the approval in the Vatican’s Apostolic Palace for an Ordinary Public Consistory on Monday morning.
Pope Francis will lead at an Ordinary Public Consistory on July 1, when Cardinals who are in Rome are set to approve the canonization of 15 Blesseds, according to Vatican News.
