I watched the live coverage of the CNN on the canonization Mass for Mother Teresa, of the Daughters of Charity, and of Kolkata (now Calcutta), India.
Over the years, she had been an inspiration for all, even to non-Catholics, because of her unquestionable love for the poor and sick. She was referred to as the "Saint of the Slums" because she "touched" and care even to the beggars and those dying on the streets due to poverty.
Saints are there to inspire people for their exemplary deeds. May the new saint, St. Teresa inspire us all.

Even cancer patient got cured
Monica Besra's "miracle" cure from cancer was instrumental in the 2003 papal recognition that the nun has entered heaven.

It is one of the requirements to be called a saint, according to the religious; she should had done two miracles that has no scientific explanation.

Yes, she is a new saint just canonized last September 4, but she had been known worldwide and a recipient of Nobel Peace Prize.

She had long been considered a "living" saint due to her works of charity for the very poor.
