Pope Francis will hold an ordinary public consistory of cardinals in the Vatican March 15, during which he will sign the decree for the canonization of Blessed Mother Teresa of Kolkata and four others. The dates and venue of their sainthood ceremony are expected to be declared at the consistory. Pope Francis had officially cleared Blessed Mother Teresa for sainthood on Dec. 17, 2015, recognizing the miraculous healing through her intercession of a Brazilian man with multiple brain abscesses. Mother Teresa was conferred the title Blessed in Rome, Italy, on October 19, 2003, after Pope St. John Paul II recognized the miraculous healing of an Indian woman with a tumour in her abdomen.
Born Agnes Gonxha Bojaxhiu of Albanian parents on August 26, 1910, in Skopje, in what is Macedonia today, Mother Teresa died in Kolkata, formerly Calcutta, on September 5, 1997. Affectionately known as the "saint of the gutter" for her unconditional love for the poor, abandoned and the marginalized, she earned several international honours, including the Nobel Peace Prize in 1979.

Ye worship Ye know not what!!!
Over the centuries, the Catholic Church had been, and she still is canonizing saints and rightly so. The Catholic Church had been standing for the past 2000 years and despite her sinfulness - she remained faithful to Christ - as she was founded on Christ and she persevered throughout all the ages.
The Catholic Church has grown steadily especially in Africa and she is now a single Church population of 1.2 billion all over the world. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catholic_Church_by_country
Surely this is a good evidence to show that this establishment is of God - for she has endured and perservered for the past 2000 and is still standing strong.
& the founder of the Catholic Church is Our Lord Jesus Christ.
Amen.
