Mother Teresa to Be Sainted After 2nd Miracle Declared: Vatican

ROME — 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, according to an Italian Catholic newspaper report.

The pontiff marked his 79th birthday on Thursday by approving a decree that the nun had performed a second miracle 11 years after her death, the Vatican confirmed in a statement.

I seriously thought that Mother Teresa had been made a saint long ago.When someone is associated with HUNDREDS of miracles,each subsequent miracle does not stand out because everyone accepts it as routine.In reality,God granted her miracles on a daily basis.Who ever did more for those in need than her?
