    Mother Teresa of Calcutta

    There are a lot of good people in the world, but not many of them are world-famous. Mother Teresa was a small, quiet nun. She died in 1997 in India, but people in many countries remember her. They talk about her and they love her. Why? Read her story. The answer is here.

    Agnes Gonxha


    For her first eighteen years, her name was not Teresa. It was Agnes. Her family name was Bojaxhiu. There were two children in the family before her: a boy and a girl. Then little Agnes Gonxha came into the world on 26 August 1910.
    Her mother and father were from Albania, but they lived in the town of Skopje. At that time, Skopje was in Serbia. They had a good home because her father did well in his work.
    Then her father suddenly died. Agnes was only eight years old. Her sister was fourteen and her brother was eleven. Things were difficult for Agnes’s mother, but she was strong for her children. She worked and did well. She loved children, and they had a happy home.
    There were some poor people near their home. These people did not have much money for food, and Agnes’s mother was good to them too. She was a Christian – a Catholic – and God was very important to her. She prayed to God every evening with her children, and they all went to church every week.
    At the church, there were stories about Christian missionaries in India and poor African countries. These people lived for God. They went to India and Africa because they wanted to bring God’s love to poor people there. Some of the missionaries in India were men from Skopje.
    Agnes loved hearing about the work of these missionaries. She started to think, “What am I going to do for God?”. She wanted to live for God, but how? Did she want to be a nun? Did she want to live only for God? She prayed for answers.
    After five years, the answer came to her. She wanted to live only for Him. She wanted to be a nun in India.
    Her mother was very unhappy about this. She loved her daughter and did not want to say goodbye to her. She went to her bedroom and stayed there all day. But after a day and a night, she came out and said to Agnes, “Put your hand in His hand and walk with Him.”
    On 25 September 1928, Agnes said goodbye to her friends and her home in Skopje. At the station, she said goodbye to her family. She was eighteen years old, and she did not see her mother and her sister again.

    To India



    She went by train and boat to Ireland. There she went to the home of the Loreto nuns. She wanted to be a Loreto nun because many of them worked in India.
    Agnes stayed with the nuns at Loreto House in Dublin for six weeks. Then she was on a boat again – to India. She was now Sister Teresa.
    These days, you can get from Ireland to India very quickly, but in those days people were on the boat for seven weeks. It went from Ireland to Spain, then across the Mediterranean Sea to Suez in Egypt, down the Red Sea, across the Arabian Sea to Sri Lanka, and then up to Calcutta in India. Calcutta was a big place with a lot of noise, but Darjeeling was quiet and beautiful.
    Young Sister Teresa did not know much English, but she was a good student. She was friendly too and she often smiled. She was very happy there. After two years, her English was good, and she started to teach children in the nuns’ school.
    Then she moved to one of the Loreto nuns’ schools in Calcutta. Its name was Loreto Entally, a big school for girls. Many of the girls were from poor families.
    The school days started early in the morning, but the nuns’ days started before that. Every morning, the nuns prayed for a long time. Then they worked in the school in the morning and the afternoon. They worked in the evening too, because many of the girls lived at the school. After a long day, the prayed again and then went to bed.
    The nuns did not have holidays. They did not listen to music or go shopping. They did not see their families. But they were happy because the lived for God. They were happy and strong all day because they remembered His love every morning.
    Sister Teresa liked teaching, and she was good at it. She was a teacher at Loreto Entally for twelve years, and then, from 1944, she was the head teacher for four years.
