    SPEECH ABOUT MOTHER THERISSA

    Ladies and gentlemen,

    Today, I stand before you to speak about a remarkable individual whose life was a shining example of
    compassion, selflessness, and dedication to the welfare of the most vulnerable in our society. Mother
    Teresa, or Blessed Teresa of Calcutta as she is formally known, is a name that resonates with people
    across the world as a symbol of love, kindness, and service to humanity.

    Born on August 26, 1910, in Skopje, in what is now North Macedonia, Mother Teresa's journey to
    becoming a global humanitarian icon was marked by a profound sense of purpose and an unwavering
    commitment to helping those in need. At the young age of 18, she left her home to join the Sisters of
    Loreto in Ireland, where she took her religious vows.

    In 1946, Mother Teresa experienced what she described as a "call within a call," a divine calling to leave
    the convent and serve the poorest of the poor in the streets of Calcutta, India. With a heart full of love
    and a determination to alleviate the suffering she witnessed around her, she founded the Missionaries of
    Charity in 1950. This humble congregation of nuns dedicated themselves to the care of the destitute and
    dying, those whom society had largely abandoned.

    Mother Teresa's work was not confined to the realm of comforting the physically suffering. She believed
    in the dignity of every human being, no matter their circumstances. Her approach was simple yet
    profound: "Not all of us can do great things. But we can do small things with great love." And this
    philosophy guided her every action.

    Under her leadership, the Missionaries of Charity expanded their reach beyond India, establishing
    homes, clinics, and hospices in some of the world's most impoverished regions. Mother Teresa's hands-
    on approach to helping others endeared her to people from all walks of life. She wasn't content with
    merely providing material assistance; she offered solace, love, and dignity to those who had been
    marginalized and forgotten.

    In 1979, Mother Teresa was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize, a recognition of her extraordinary
    dedication to the cause of peace and her tireless efforts to care for the poorest of the poor. However, she
    remained ever humble, attributing her achievements to the grace of God and the support of her fellow
    sisters.
    Mother Teresa's life and work are a testament to the boundless potential for love and compassion that
    resides within each of us. She showed us that, regardless of our background or circumstances, we can
    make a positive impact on the world by reaching out to those in need with open hearts and helping
    hands.

    Though she left us in 1997, her legacy continues to inspire millions of people worldwide. Her
    canonization as a saint by the Catholic Church in 2016 further solidified her place in history as a beacon
    of hope, love, and service.

    As we remember Mother Teresa today, let us be reminded of the profound difference one person can
    make in the lives of others. Let us be inspired by her example to reach out to those who are suffering, to
    embrace the marginalized, and to sow the seeds of love and compassion in our own communities.

    In conclusion, Mother Teresa's life was a living testament to the power of love and selflessness. She
    touched the hearts of countless individuals and left an enduring legacy of compassion and service to
    humanity. May her memory continue to inspire us all to follow in her footsteps and make the world a
    better place through acts of love and kindness.

    Thank you.
