Pope Francis just recognized Mother Teresa’s second miracle. Now she will become a saint.

Mother Teresa, the Catholic nun famous for her work among the poor in Kolkata, India, is going to be made a saint, the Vatican has announced. The Vatican must recognize two miracles in order to canonize a saint, and Mother Teresa was put on a fast track toward sainthood after her death in 1997. Pope John Paul II recognized the first miracle, required for beatification, in 2003; Pope Francis has now recognized a second.
