    All said and done, fact can not be denied that it is a CHRISTIAN MISSIONARY and so some doubt on its working as all such missionaries do work in the direction of christianity and not for pure humanitarian purpose.

    NO ILL FEELINGS TOWARDS ANY RELIGION OR FAITH PLEASE.

    By the 1970s Mother Theresa had become internationally famed as a humanitarian and advocate for the poor and helpless. She won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1979 and India's highest civilian honor, the Bharat Ratna, in 1980 for her humanitarian work. Mother Teresa's Missionaries of Charity continued to expand, and at the time of her death it was operating 610 missions in 123 countries, including hospices and homes for people with HIV/AIDS, leprosy and tuberculosis, soup kitchens, children's and family counseling programs, orphanages, and schools.

    Following her death she was beatified by Pope John Paul II and given the title Blessed Teresa of Calcutta.In 2002, the Vatican recognized as a miracle the healing of a tumor in the abdomen of an Indian woman, Monica Besra, following the application of a locket containing Mother Teresa's picture. Monica Besra said that a beam of light emanated from the picture, curing the cancerous tumor. Some of Besra's medical staff and, initially, Besra's husband insist that conventional medical treatment eradicated the tumor
