Shrine of St Teresa of Calcutta

“If you want to change the world, go home and love your family” ~ St Teresa of Calcutta

Reflections of St Teresa of Calcutta

The fruit of silence is prayer; the fruit of prayer is faith; the fruit of faith is love; the fruit of love is service; the fruit of service
is peace

The poor must know that we love them, that they are wanted. They themselves have nothing to give but love. We are concerned with how to get this message of love and compassion across. We are trying to bring peace to the world through our work. But the work is the gift of God.

Do “small things with great love” and that will change the world.

If you judge people, you have no time to love them

Kind words can be short and easy to speak, but their echoes are truly endless

“PEOPLE are unrealistic,

illogical, and self-centered.

Love them anyway!”
