教宗批准冊封特蕾莎修女爲聖人大綱

The Vatican says Pope Francis, head of the Roman Catholic Church, has recognized a second miracle attributed to the late Mother Teresa, clearing the way for her elevation to sainthood.

梵蒂岡說，羅馬天主教教宗方濟各確認已故修女特蕾莎生前施展的第二次神蹟，爲冊封她爲聖人掃清了道路。

Vatican officials said Friday that the Pope has approved a decree that attributed a miracle to Mother Teresa's intercession.

梵蒂岡官員星期五表示，教宗批准了一項法令，把第二個神蹟歸功於特蕾莎修女的代禱。

The miracle named in the decree is the inexplicable cure in 2008 of a Brazilian man suffering from brain tumors. The man is said to have been cured after his wife prayed for Mother Teresa's intercession.

法令中提到的神蹟說，2008年，一位患腦瘤的巴西男子神奇地得到治癒。據說，這名男子是在他妻子禱告請求特蕾莎修女代禱之後得到治癒的。

Italian media report the formal canonization ceremony is expected to take place in September 2016, making it one of the highlights of Pope Francis' so-called "Holy Year of Mercy."

據意大利媒體報道，正式的封聖儀式預計將在2016年9月舉行，它將成爲教宗方濟各所稱的“慈悲禧年”的一大亮點。

Mother Teresa was famed for her lifetime of service to the poor, establishing homeless shelters, orphanages, soup kitchens and clinics around the world.

特蕾莎修女因爲畢生服務於窮人，在全球建立無家可歸者收容所、孤兒院、愛心廚房和診所而聞名。
