Vatican City, Sept 2 (IBNS): Vatican City is gearing up for the canonisation of Mother Teresa.

Mother Teresa was beatified as "Blessed Teresa of Calcutta" on Oct 19 in 2003 and a second required miracle was credited to her intercession by Pope Francis, in Dec 2015, paving the way for her to be recognized as a saint by the Roman Catholic Church.

Mother Teresa will be formally declared a saint at the Canonisation Ceremony in Rome's Vatican City on Sept 4.
