Tomorrow, Pope Leo XIV will officially canonize two remarkable men: Carlo Acutis and Pier Giorgio Frassati. But how does someone become a saint? What steps and criteria does the Catholic Church follow in the canonization process?

Fr. Mike unpacks the journey to sainthood and reminds us that holiness begins with one simple thing, saying “yes” to God.
