100,000 catholics gather to see Pope Francis make mother Teresa saint (Photos).

Thousands of Catholics gathered in the Vatican where Pope Francis proclaimed Mother Teresa a saint this morning.


                                             

Mother Teresa, the tiny nun who cared for the world's most unwanted and became an icon of the Catholic Church, was canonised at a ceremony in St Peter's Square. The nun is claimed to have miraculously cured a woman with a tumour and a man with a brain infection. This paved the way for her sainthood.

Pope Francis, who yesterday decried the modern 'sin of indifference' to suffering, presided over the morning Mass. See more photos below.
