The Catholic Church has just canonized a saint who was born in the '90s, wore sneakers, played video games and used computer programming languages to spread the gospel.

Carlo Acutis — who died in 2006 from leukemia at the age of 15 — officially became the church's first millennial saint during a Vatican ceremony on Sunday.

Italian media has dubbed the British-Italian teen "God's influencer" because of how he used the internet to further his faith, but that's just one of his many monikers.

"We've nicknamed him the patron saint of the internet," Rev. Ed Howe of the Carlo Acutis Parish in Chicago, told host Nil Kӧksal.

"The Vatican calls him the Apostle of the Eucharist and patron of young people, and some people call him the patron saint of computer programmers."
