Product Description
Two separate miracles of healing were credited to Mother Teresa after her death, which made it possible for her to be canonized as Saint Teresa. The two miracles attributed to Mother Teresa were ones of healing. But the Vatican requires more than someone shouting, "I'm cured!" and thanking Mother Teresa to believe that a miraculous recovery has taken place.
Under Vatican law, the first miracle attributed to a candidate for sainthood means beatification can be conferred. If a second miracle follows, canonization and entry into sainthood can take place. Recognition of her first miracle resulted in Mother Teresa's beatification in 2003. She was canonized on September 4, 2016, as Saint Teresa of Calcutta.
