An Indian Christian prays during a special mass in honour of Mother Teresa at the St. Mother Teresa Church in Virar some 72 km north of Mumbai on September 4, 2016, as she was being canonised at the Vatican. Pope Francis on September 4 proclaimed Mother Teresa a saint, hailing her work with the destitute of Kolkata as a beacon for mankind and testimony of God’s compassion for the poor. The revered nun’s elevation to Roman Catholicism’s celestial pantheon came in a canonisation mass in St Peter’s square presided over by Pope Francis in the presence of 100, 000 pilgrims. / AFP PHOTO / INDRANIL MUKHERJEE
