LIVE STREAM: Watch The Canonization of Mother Teresa, Declared A Saint In The Vatican
Born Agnes Gonxha Bojaxhiu in 1910, Mother Teresa set up her Missionaries of Charity in the slums of Kolkata in 1950 and made her headquarters in the Indian city for nearly half a century.
She died in Kolkata in 1997 at age 87.
Catholics -- including hundreds of blue- and white-robed nuns from Missionaries of Charity sisterhood founded by Mother Teresa -- had gathered from around the world to attend the canonization of the church's newest saint, just 19 years after her death.
Watch the Holy Mass and Canonization of Mother Teresa widely known as "The Living Saint" of her time and the "Saint of the Gutters".
