In 1950, Teresa founded the Missionaries of Charity, a Roman Catholic religious congregation that had over 4,500 nuns and was active in 133 countries in 2012. The congregation manages homes for people who are dying of HIV/AIDS, leprosy and tuberculosis. It also runs soup kitchens, dispensaries, mobile clinics, children's and family counselling programmes, as well as orphanages and schools. Members take vows of chastity, poverty, and obedience, and also profess a fourth vow – to give "wholehearted free service to the poorest of the poor."[9]
Teresa received a number of honors, including the 1962 Ramon Magsaysay Peace Prize and 1979 Nobel Peace Prize. She was canonised on 4 September 2016, and the anniversary of her death (5 September) is her feast day. A controversial figure during her life and after her death, Teresa was admired by many for her charitable work.

Bio-sketch of Mother Teresa
Mother Teresa was born on 26 August,1910. She was born in Albania.Her original name was Agnes Gonxha Bojaxhiu. Her father owned a small farm. At the age of twelve she realized that what she wanted to do most of all, was to help the poor. She decided to train for missionary work and came to India at the age of nineteen to join the Sisters of Loretto, an Irish community of nuns with a mission in Kolkata. In 1928 she took her initial vows as a nun.
From 1929 to 1948 Mother Teresa taught at St. Mary’s High School in Kolkata but the suffering and poverty she glimpsed outside the convent walls disturbed her. In 1946 she left the convent school and devoted herself to working among the poor in the slums of Kolkata. She had no money so she started an open-air school for homeless children. Soon she was joined by many voluntary helpers. Various church organizations and the municipal authorities gave her monetary help. This made it possible for her to start her own order The Missionaries of Charity’ to love and take care of those persons whom nobody was prepared to look after. Today the ‘The Missionaries of Charity’ has over one thousand sisters and brothers, many of whom have been trained as doctors, nurses and social workers.
Various projects for rehabilitating slum-dwellers, children’s homes, homes for the dying, clinics and a leper colony, etc., were started by Mother Teresa. The Missionaries of Charity’ has also spread worldwide and undertakes relief work for a number of countries in Africa Asia and South America.
In 1979, Mother Teresa was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize and became a symbol of charitable, selfless work.Over the last two decades of her life, Mother Teresa suffered various health problems, but nothing could dissuade her from fulfilling her mission of serving the poor and needy. Until her very last illness she was active in travelling around the world to the different branches of The Missionaries of Charity. During her last few years, she met Princess Diana in the Bronx, New York. The two died within a week of each other.
Mother Teresa died on 5 September 1997 at the age of 87 in Kolkata.
Following Mother Teresa’s death, the Vatican began the process of beatification, which is the second step on the way to canonization and sainthood. Mother Teresa was formally beatified in October 2003 by Pope John Paul II.
