Today is the feast of Saint Teresa of Calcutta.

Saint Teresa of Calcutta, lovingly known as Mother Teresa, was born Anjezë Gonxhe Bojaxhiu on August 26, 1910, in Skopje. From a young age, she felt called to serve God and dedicate her life to helping others.

At the age of 18, she joined the Sisters of Loreto and eventually traveled to India, where she became a teacher and later the principal of a school in Calcutta. In 1946, she experienced what she described as a “call within a call”—a profound inspiration to leave the classroom and serve the poorest and most vulnerable people living on the streets.

In 1950, she founded the Missionaries of Charity, a religious congregation devoted to serving people who were poor, sick, abandoned, and dying. Her simple life, compassion, and unwavering commitment to those in need inspired millions around the world.

Mother Teresa received the Nobel Peace Prize in 1979 for her humanitarian work. She continued serving others until her death on September 5, 1997.

She was canonized as Saint Teresa of Calcutta by Pope Francis on September 4, 2016.

Her life remains a powerful reminder that small acts of love, kindness, and compassion can make a profound difference in the world.

“Not all of us can do great things. But we can do small things with great love.”

🙏 Saint Teresa of Calcutta, pray for us.🙏

Saint Gregory the Great lived in a most turbulent time. There were devastating episodes of plague, the sacking of Rome and the breakdown of strong Roman rule, invasions by Lombards and Franks, floods, and a widening gap between imperial Byzantium and the Roman Church.
Born around 540 into a noble Roman family, Saint Gregory was probably trained in law, and started his public service as a Prefect of Rome. However, upon the death of his father, he converted his family home to monastery, where he resided as a monk. He built six more monasteries in Sicily and one in Rome.

Often called the father of the medieval papacy and Apostle of the English, Saint Gregory was named Pope by acclamation in 590. Although he was reluctant to assume this post, preferring the cloistered life, his accomplishments were many. He was an extremely capable manager of Church estates and tenants and is known for his reform of the liturgy. He was instrumental in the consolidation of papal power and led the fight against the many heresies promoted by small Christian groups at the time. Through his prolific correspondence he oversaw monastic life, curtailing the power of grasping bishops, correcting abuses, and enforcing discipline. He was particularly concerned with the conversion of England, sending 40 monks from his monastery to evangelize there.

Saint Gregory died in 604 and was sainted immediately. He is one of four key doctors of the Western Church. Among the miracles attributed to him is a Eucharistic miracle in which the woman who prepared the bread for communion laughed at the consecration, denying the transformation of the bread to the real presence of Jesus. Saint Greogry prayed for the Lord to show the congregation the truth and confirm their belief. The piece of bread transformed into a piece of flesh and then returned to bread, reforming the woman, and strengthening the faith of all. St. Gergory the Great, pray for us!
