The woman never failed to live the Gospel:
Mat 25:42 For I was hungry and you gave me not to eat: I was thirsty and you gave me not to drink.
Mat 25:43 I was a stranger and you took me not in: naked and you covered me not: sick and in prison and you did not visit me.
Mat 25:44 Then they also shall answer him, saying: Lord, when did we see thee hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison and did not minister to thee?
Mat 25:45 Then he shall answer them, saying: Amen: I say to you, as long as you did it not to one of these least, neither did you do it to me.
Mat 25:46 And these shall go into everlasting punishment: but the just, into life everlasting.
Joh 15:12 This is my commandment, that you love one another, as I have loved you.
Rom 13:10 The love of our neighbour worketh no evil. Love therefore is the fulfilling of the law.
Gal 5:13 For you, brethren, have been called unto liberty. Only make not liberty an occasion to the flesh: but by charity of the spirit serve one another.
Gal 5:14 For all the law is fulfilled in one word: Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
Tit 2:3 The aged women, in like manner, in holy attire, not false accusers, not given to much wine, teaching well:
Tit 2:4 That they may teach the young women to be wise, to love their husbands, to love their children.
Tit 2:5 To be discreet, chaste, sober, having a care of the house, gentle, obedient to their husbands: that the word of God be not blasphemed.
1Jo 3:18 My little children, let us not love in word nor in tongue, but in deed and in truth.
1Jo 4:7 Dearly beloved, let us love one another: for charity is of God. And every one that loveth is born of God and knoweth God.
1Jo 4:8 He that loveth not knoweth not God: for God is charity.
1Jo 4:16 And we have known and have believed the charity which God hath to us. God is charity: and he that abideth in charity abideth in God, and God in him.
Mother Teresa was also a woman of faith, and of hope, and she never failed to share those virtues with all who needed them.
If those who criticize her work, personally manage to accomplish 1/10,000th of what she did for both God and man, they will be exceedingly fortunate.
Mother Teresa was one of the greatest souls who ever lived, simply because she took Jesus Christ at his word, and loved all people, especially the poor and the powerless, in a way that even the corrupt of the world couldn't manage to ignore.

She's now dead but she converted a lot of people in vulnerable situations who had little choice if they wanted to be rescued from the street, once they were inside the mostly empty hospitals proper medical care was minimal, pain relief was non-existent.
