I have read some conflicting reports that Pope Francis is planning on canonizing Mother Teresa in September of next year. I believe she technically needs one more miracle, but it wouldn’t surprise me if he went through with it regardless. Didn’t the pope canonized with John Paul 2 last year only have one miracle?
 
She has already joined all the other St. Teresa’s in my opinion 😃
 
I thought she was already canonized with John Paul II? :confused: Totally mixed up on that.
 
I figured Pope Francis, with his focus on the poor and needy in our world, would be the one to canonize Bl. Mother Teresa, just makes sense. Of course, I don’t know what’s going on with her cause, or why it’s been delayed this long - she seems to have been almost canonized by consensus years ago.
 
Delay justified in view of revelations and sainthood ? sad thought
 
I thought she was already canonized with John Paul II? :confused: Totally mixed up on that.
When St. John Paul II was Pope, he beatified Mother Teresa in 2003. John Paul himself was beatified by Pope Benedict XVI in 2011 and canonized by Pope Francis in 2014, who also canonized John XXIII in the same ceremony.
