Mother Teresa's Lessons of Love and Secrets of… door Susan Conroy

I bought this after hearing the author speak. This chronicles her time working with the poor and dying in India as well as her acquaintance with Mother Teresa. It is a very moving and descriptive book, giving me more information about this good woman than I ever knew.

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.… (meer)
