Mother Teresa Mother Teresa was born into an Albanian family on the 26 of august 1910 in Skopje, alabaina mother

Teresa was christened agres conxna which means flower bud. Often when their mother went to take food and money to the needy little agres went with her .Every night the family recited the rosary together we were a very happy family mother Teresa often said. Sister Teresa was happy at the hospital and her work there was to stand her in good and stead for what laid a head. As the Missionaries of Charity grew under Mother's leadership, they expanded their ministry to other countries. By the 70s she had become internationally well known as an advocate for the poor and helpless, due in part to a film and book, Something Beautiful for God When a poor person dies of hunger, it has not happened because God did not take care of him or her. It has happened because neither you nor I wanted to give that person what he or she needed. Mother Teresa was definitely inspired by Jesus. Mother Teresa used her power of love from God to help those in desperate need. Mother Teresa didnt get paid for anything she did nor would she except money from organizations or donations. It was not like Mother Teresa had an overwhelming amount of money but she was simply a person who devoted her entire life to serving others and helping those in need. Many people may not have noticed it, but all Mother Teresa had to do was touch a person and that was almost enough. She helped thousands of people in poor countries with ailing diseases, but most importantly see touched the souls of common men. She made even the rich and selfish take a deep look into their lives, which brought out the best in everyone. When one person can captivate the world as she could, it makes you realize how very important she really was. It was not always what she did, but rather how she conducted herself while doing it. For all the many deeds she did, she never once asked for anything in return. Most leaders today are very selfish and are only contributing to society when they feel it looks good for their image. Jesus cared for the poor and needy and so did Mother Teresa. This shows that she was determined and eager to help the poor and needy. She gave up her own life in order to fulfill her wishes and became a nun. One of Mother Teresa's first assignments was to teach, and eventually to serve as principal, in a girls' high school in Calcutta. Although the school was close to the slums, the students were mainly wealthy. In 1946 Mother Teresa experienced what she called a second vocation or "call within a call." She felt an inner urging to leave the convent life and work directly with the poor. In 1948 the Vatican gave her permission to leave the Sisters of Loreto and to start a new work under the guidance of the Archbishop of Calcutta St Teresa devoted much of the rest of her life to travelling around Spain setting up new convents based along the ancient monastic traditions. Her travels and work were not always greeted with enthusiasm, many resented her reforms and the implied criticism of existing religious orders. She often met with criticism including the papal nuncio who used the rather descriptive phrase a restless disobedient gadabout who has gone about teaching as though she were a professor" St Teresa also had to frequently contend with difficult living conditions and her frail health
