St. Teresa of Calcutta: Missionary, Mother, Mystic

This stirring new biography tells the story of a woman who changed the world by tending to the most vulnerable. St. Teresa of Calcutta delves into the conviction behind her ministry: that both the physical and the spiritual must be addressed for humans to live as God intends. With humanizing insights into Teresa’s personal struggles, St. Teresa of Calcutta is an inspiring reminder that even the holiest among us must work to find a path—and that God’s love follows us even into the most challenging of circumstances.
