According to Radio Vaticana, Blessed Teresa of Calcutta is to be made a Saint. Pope Francis on Thursday authorized the Congregation for the Causes of Saints to promulgate a decree regarding a miracle attributed to the intercession of Blessed Teresa.
The miracle recognized by Pope Francis involved the inexplicable recovery of a Brazilian man who suddenly woke from a coma caused by a viral brain infection was due to the intercession of the Albanian nun, who died in 1997.
The Rev. Brian Kolodiejchuk, the postulator spearheading Mother Teresa’s canonization case, said in a statement Friday that the man fully recovered following his wife’s prayers and he has since returned to work as a mechanical engineer. The couple also have had two children.
News of the pope’s approval, confirmed Friday (Dec. 18) by the Vatican, was first reported late Thursday by the newspaper of the Italian bishops conference, Avvenire.
It noted that the pontiff’s action came three days after a Vatican panel of cardinals and bishops affirmed the judgment of medical experts and theologians who concluded that there was no medical explanation for the apparent cure.
Church observers said the pope would probably canonize Mother Teresa next year on Sunday, Sept. 4, the day before the anniversary of her death, which is also her official feast day.

Dearest Mother visited me in a dream 20 years ago when I was expecting my second child .She told me “love your baby !”The following day her words became clear : she meant that mothers should not kill their babies. The sono revealed that my son would not live. Despite the doctor’s insistence that we terminate that “bad” pregnancy I carried him to term. He stayed with us one short hour and was buried on the same day as Mother : September 13th , my birthday.
A year later we named our next daughter Theresa.
Praise God for her life and ministry to me and thousands others.
Mother Theresa’s beuatiful face will always touch heart for charity in all places of the world…in Jesus name!!!
Pray for me, my son, my friends and my family.

Why isn’t Mother Theresa deemed a saint by virtue of the life she lived??? She answered God’s call to mercy and love in a exemplary way.
I am a lifelong Catholic and am aware of the “miracle rule”. However, I find it medieval, archaic and distracting from the saintliness she bestowed upon thousands in a lifetime. Please explain the logic in the miracle rule.
Does anyone else feels like it distracts from the matter at hand??
Divine Providence… as quickly as possible those miracles were recognized… how many more miracles there truly must be !… there are MANY unnamed saints whom all of us have known – may ALL the saints continue to intercede and watch over us !!
Blessed Mother Teresa of Calcutta, please pray for all the sick especially for a dear friend of mine, Vicky Kliatchko Cruz-Marinas. May God’s blessings heal her from her illness.
