In the summer of 1986, 21-year-old Susan Conroy left her family and friends and headed off to Calcutta, India -- alone -- to assist the Missionaries of Charity. Her goals for this journey were ambitious: "Work alongside Mother Teresa, actively trying to learn her ways of selfless love, devotion, and service". "Grow stronger in my faith". "Grow in appreciation for what I have been given". "Grow in concern for human life". "Carry through life all that I will learn, and share this with others". Now, in a one-of-a-kind, first-person account with never-before-published photographs, Susan Conroy takes you there. "This is a story about how 'all things are possible with God,'" she writes. "It is a treasury of the lessons of love that I learned from Mother Teresa and her beloved poorest of the poor." Book jacket. Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |

Her humility and modesty over what she has done is amazing. And so is what she has done. She and the Sisters of Charity and their volunteers take dying people from the streets to their hospices, clean them up, try to feed them, and let them know they are loved.
Someone asked Mother Teresa about the saying: Give a man a fish, feed him for a meal/ teach him to fish, feed him for life. She said that if she could get someone to hold a rod, she would send him for someone else to help. She helps those that are the most unlovable and needy. Truly a saint.
I only gave this four stars as I felt the author repeated herself, her awe with Mother Teresa, and her thankfulness to God for about 25% of the book...but maybe you cannot repeat that too much. (
