The lifesize bronze statue of Mother Teresa with her quote : "If you pray, you will have faith. And if you have faith, you will love. And if you love, you will serve. And if you serve, you will have peace", was added to the cemetery in 2000.
In 1950, Mother 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.
She was beatified on 19 October 2003 by Pope John Paul II and canonized by Pope Francis on 4 September 2016. (
