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. Gregory the Great is a Doctor of the Church and he was a pope during the Middle Ages.

Originally a Roman prefect, Gregory resigned from his position to become a monk. He was later elected pope.
⁣
During this time, famine plagued Europe and he sought to relieve the impoverished by providing them with food from the agriculture of the Church’s various farmlands. Gregory also arranged for priests to daily attend to the poor in the city.
⁣
He also had a missionary heart and sent monks to bring the gospel to England to convert the Anglo-Saxons.

St. Gregory the Great, pray for us!
