Exhibition at United Nations(UN) in Honour of Mother Teresa's Sainthood

An exhibition showcasing the life and works of Mother Teresa, who spent most of her life in service of the destitute in India, will be organised at the UN's headquarters next month in celebration of the Nobel Laureate being declared a Saint on September04,2016

The Permanent Observer Mission of the Holy See to the UN, together with non-profit legal organisation ADF International, will host the exhibition dedicated to her "words, witness, and works" from September 6 to September 9. The exhibition will open just days after Mother Teresa, who had founded the "Missionaries of Charity", is declared a Saint by Pope Francis at a ceremony in the Vatican on September04,2016

The date chosen for her canonization is the eve of the 19th anniversary of her death. The Popehad cleared the way for her sainthood last year when he recognized a second miracle attributed to Mother Teresa.
