Description
This stirring biography follows St. Teresa's life from Macedonia to the cloister in India to the streets of Calcutta to worldwide fame and the company of the saints at her canonization in September 2016.
Focusing on her on-of-a-kind life and ministry, Kerry Walters points to the 1946 turning point in Mother Teresa's Life: her sense that God was calling her to dedicate herself to serving the poor of India, her leave-taking of the Loreto Sisters, and struggle for ecclesial approval for a new religious order. He also explores her 1979 Nobel Peace Prize, relationship with John Pail II, and her work in the 1980s and 1990s with war victims and AIDS patients.
You will be inspired and strengthened in your spirituality with the knowledge that even the holist among us must work the knowledge that even the holiest among us must work to find a path-and that God's love follows us into even the most challenging of circumstances.
