Today marks 27 years since the death of the Albanian humanist, Nobel laureate Saint Mother Teresa.

Saint Mother Teresa never started any of her work without worshiping God in the Eucharist. Let us imitate her with prayer and worship. Blessed Mother Teresa - Pray for us! Let's honor our holy daughter, the Mother of Humanity, the Ambassador of our ancient people!", is the call to participate in the Friday Mass in the Cathedral.

Saint Mother Teresa, whose full name is Anjezë Gonxhe Bojaxhiu, was born on August 26, 1910, in Skopje. She was a well-known Albanian humanist, winner of the Nobel Peace Prize, while on October 19, 2003 she was declared blessed by the Vatican.

She was the guardian mother of 7,500 children in 60 schools, she was the mother who treated 960 sick people in 213 dispensaries, she was the only one in the world who treated 47,000 leprosy victims in 54 clinics, she took care of 3.400 abandoned and abandoned old people, in 20 nursing homes, had adopted 160 illegitimate children. These are the figures from the mid-80s, and between the time Saint Teresa was alive and today the figures have changed a lot.

Saint Mother Teresa passed away on September 5, 1997 in Calcutta, India. Pope Francis on July 04, 2016, reading the holy formula in the name of God, proclaimed Mother Teresa as Saint Teresa.

There are two universally known miracles that paved the way for the sanctification of the Albanian nun.

The first was the testimony of Monika Besra, mother of 5 children. She has stated that praying in front of the icon of Mother Teresa cured her of stomach tumor disease. The event took place in 1998, a year after the death of Mother Teresa. She confessed that her followers took her to a church and told her to pray in front of the photo of the Albanian. They had given her a medallion of Mother Teresa which they placed on her stomach. When he woke up, Besra said that the pain and illness had disappeared. This miracle was recognized by Pope John Paul II in 2003.

The second miracle was recognized in 2015 by Pope Francis. A 25-year-old man from Brazil confirmed that thanks to the Albanian nun he was cured of a brain tumor.
