Stock Photo - Dec 18, 2015 - File - Mother Teresa to Be Sainted After 2nd Miracle Declares Vatican. MOTHER TERESA, who dedicated her life to helping India's poor, will be made a saint in the Roman Catholic Church, the Vatican said Friday. She will likely be canonized in September to coincide with the 19th anniversary of her death and Pope Francis' Holy Year of Mercy. Pope Francis marked his 79th birthday by approving a decree that the nun had performed a second miracle 11 years after her death, the Vatican confirmed in a statement. Pictured: Jan 01, 1980 - Kolkata, India - An Albanian Roman Catholic nun who founded the Missionaries of Charity in Kolkata (Calcutta), India, Mother Teresa (AGNES GONXHA BOJAXHIU) ministered to the poor, sick, orphaned, and dying, while guiding the Missionaries of Charity's expansion, first throughout India and then in other countries for over forty years. By the 1970s she had become internationally famed as a humanitarian and advocate for the poor and helpless, due in part to a documentary, and book, Something Beautiful for God by Malcolm Muggeridge. She won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1979 for her humanitarian work. (Credit Image: © Keystone Press Agency/Keystone USA via ZUMAPRESS.com)
