Relics of St Teresa venerated in Rome following
canonization
(Vatican Radio) The
celebration of the life and sanctity of Mother Teresa of Calcutta will continue
in Rome in the days following her canonization on Sunday.
On Monday, the 19th
anniversary of St Teresa’s death, the Vatican Secretary of State Cardinal
Pietro Parolin will celebrate a Mass of Thanksgiving for the canonization, with
tens of thousands of pilgrims expected to attend. Later on Monday, the relics
of Mother Teresa will be moved to the Papal Archbasilica of St John Lateran –
the Cathedral of Rome – where they will be exposed for the veneration of the
faithful.
The veneration of the relics
will continue on Wednesday and Thursday in the church of Saint Gregory on the
Celian Hill (San Gregorio al Celio). On those days, the faithful will also have
the opportunity to visit the rooms of Mother Teresa in the convent of the
Missionaries of Charity next to the church. The Missionaries operate a homeless
shelter near San Gregorio, in addition to numerous other charitable enterprises
in Rome.
