Why Mother Teresa?

Mother Teresa wasn't a saintly person – she was a shrewd operator with  unpalatable views who knew how to build up a brand | The Independent | The  Independent

We met her once here in Detroit.

She was old and not even 5 feet tall.

She came from humble beginnings, lived and died as a humble person.

So, WHY DID THIS LITTLE OLD LADY SHAKE UP THE WORLD?

Is it really that noteworthy that someone would reach out to help someone in need?

Unfortunately, YES!

The poor are uneducated, inadequately housed and fed with little or no access to good medical care and little hope for their future or the future of their children.

And I’m not talking about people living in Ethiopia or the Sudan!

No, I’m talking about people who live within 1 MILE OF YOUR HOUSE!

The safe, little, upscale conclave we live in is not how the world really is.

She knew that and so do we.

We can all do what she did in some small way.

Will you perform an act of COMPASSION for the first time in 2022?

When Mother Teresa died and went to heaven, she took no possessions with her!

Neither will you!
