Mother Theresa’s Missionary Nuns of Charity, Katmandu, NepalThe fruit of stillness is prayer. The fruit of prayer is faith. The fruit of faith is love. The fruit of love is service. The fruit of service is peace. Mother Theresa Agnes Gonxsha Bojaxhiu (Mother Theresa of Calcutta) was born in 1910 as the daughter of an Albanian construction-company owner in Skopje (Macedonia). She entered the Order of the Sisters of Loreto when she was eighteen and taught at the Order’s school, St. Mary’s High School for Girls in Calcutta, a year later. In 1937 she withdrew to Darjeeling and decided to dedicate the rest of her life to the poorest and the sick. Starting in 1946 she dedicated herself primarily to he poor in the slums of Calcutta. In 1948 she left her convent, became an Indian citizen, travelled to Patna, India, and Paris to receive medical training and founded the Sisterhood, “Missionaries of Charity,” in 1950. Over 3000 nuns belong to the order, dedicating themselves to the care of the dying, orphans and victims of leprosy. In 1971 Mother Theresa became the first recipient of the “Pope John XXIII Peace Prize.” She was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1979. She died on Sept. 5th 1997 in Calcutta, and was beatified by Pope John Paul II on Oct. 19th 2003.
