| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Dear Wisdom, Blessed Mother Teresa (1910-1997) was not a physically imposing figure. Standing just over 5 feet, she was slight in stature, yet her arms seemed endless. And she put them to use: Often she was seen cradling sick newborns or embracing the poorest of the poor in Calcutta. To those who loved this holy woman of God, her road to sainthood was unsurprising. But her upcoming canonization has put the "saint of the gutters" back into the international spotlight. Who was Mother Teresa? What was her "call within a call"? Why did she wrestle with soul-crippling doubt in God's presence for nearly 50 years?
Franciscan Media sought answers to these questions, to know Mother Teresa more deeply, and to celebrate her life and her life's work.
Click here to visit our site devoted entirely to Mother Teresa. Enjoy thought-provoking articles from some of the world's most renowned religious writers, share downloadable prayers, and watch never-before-seen footage of her 1981 visit to the Franciscan Friars of St. John the Baptist Province in Cincinnati, Ohio, among other features. We hope this site serves as a testament to this humble servant of God.
May Mother Teresa's life inspire you—and may her canonization inspire us all to seek God's grace in our own ways. | | | | | | | | |
