Today is the feast day of St. Teresa of Calcutta, also known as Mother Teresa.
⁣
Teresa was born in 1910 and at that age of 18, left home to join the Sisters of Loreto in Ireland. She took the name Teresa after St. Therese of Lisieux and professed her final vows in 1937.
⁣
In 1946, she found her “call within a call.” She experienced visions and an interior call to “radiate Jesus’ love on souls” and “be His light” revealing to her his pain for the neglected poor. His love for them became her own.
⁣
Her legacy started with the establishment the Missionaries of Charity and the beginnings of her work in Calcutta. She worked with many other religious groups, formed various organizations, and influenced movements. She gained worldwide recognition for her work and was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1979.
⁣
Mother Teresa died September 5 and was canonized by Pope Franics in 2016. She is the patron of World Youth Day, Missionaries of Charity and a co-patron of the Archdiocese of Calcutta.

St. Teresa of Calcutta, pray for us!

On this feast day of St. Teresa of Calcutta, we reflect on the words that Jesus spoke to her heart calling her to service of the poor: “Come be my light.”
⁣
Jesus is also calling you with these words to be a light in your own way in the world. How can you answer this call? In what ways is God calling you to serve like Mother Teresa?

Greogory died in 604 and was titled “the Great” for his servant’s heart. He is the patron of musicians, singers, students, and teachers.

St. Gregory the Great, pray for us!
