The Legacy of Mother Teresa

Mother Teresa, born Agnes Gonxha Bojaxhiu, dedicated her life to serving the poorest of the poor after moving to Calcutta, India. Founding the Missionaries of Charity in 1950, she provided shelter, care, and dignity to the sick and dying. Despite facing criticism, her unwavering compassion earned her global recognition, including the Nobel Peace Prize in 1979. Her legacy continues through her order, embodying selfless service and love.
