Crowds cheer mother teresa beatification. mother teresa won the Nobel Peace Prize for her decades of service. Hundreds of thousands
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/3204362.stm

Extractions: Mother Teresa won the Nobel Peace Prize for her decades of service Hundreds of thousands of pilgrims have thronged into St Peter's Square in Rome to witness the beatification of Mother Teresa of Calcutta. Pope John Paul II, unable to pronounce a homily for the first time due to age and illness, presided over the rite which brings the world-famous nun close to sainthood, just six years after her death. Indian sitar music blended with traditional hymns to celebrate the nun who spent more than 60 years attending to the sick and dying of Calcutta. Guests included regulars from a soup kitchen in Rome run by Mother Teresa's order and the celebrations extended abroad, to Calcutta itself and Albania in recognition of Mother Teresa's Balkan roots. BEATIFICATION Beatification requires that a miracle has occurred Group approaches local bishop After Rome's approval an investigation is launched Findings are sent to the Congregation for the Causes of Saints Case is presented to the Pope Blessed may be accorded a feast day Relics of the candidate may be venerated Canonisation (Actual sainthood ) requires proof of a second miracle

Pope John Paul II signs decrees accepting as authentic a miracle attributed to mother teresa, putting her a step closer to sainthood.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/2593073.stm

Extractions: Pope John Paul II has signed decrees accepting as authentic a miracle attributed to Mother Teresa, putting her a step closer to sainthood. The Pope judged that the curing of an Indian woman suffering from an abdominal tumour was the result of the supernatural intervention of Mother Teresa. Hundreds of miracles have been attributed to Mother Teresa The Pope's decision means the way is now clear for Mother Teresa's beatification, which is one step short of canonisation. This is expected to happen on 19 October 2003. Mother Teresa's full canonisation would probably follow within a year or two, bestowing upon her the Catholic Church's highest honour. However, a second miracle will be needed for sainthood to be declared. 'Heroic virtues' It is rare in modern times for people to reach sainthood in the short time predicted for the nun, who died in 1997 at the age of 87.

Salon Newsreal There was less and more to mother teresa than met the eye. Of the divorce mother teresa said that It is a good thing that it is over.
http://www.salon.com/sept97/news/news3970905.html

Extractions: "SAINTS," George Orwell wrote in 1949, "should always be judged guilty until they are proven innocent." For an illustration of the exact reverse of this admonition, consider the career of "Mother Teresa" of Calcutta, who died Friday at the age of 87. Most public figures have their reputations judged in the light of their actions. But uniquely, all of Mother Teresa's actions were judged by her reputation as a holy, selfless person, completely dedicated to the service of the poor and the wretched. Let me offer examples of two small but related "actions." Two years ago, the population of the Republic of Ireland went to the polls in a referendum. The single issue was the removal of the constitutional ban on divorce. Ireland is the only country in Europe with such a prohibition, and it is also engaged in serious talks with the Protestant minority who fear clerical control of their lives in a future "power-sharing" agreement. For this reason, most Irish political parties called for a "yes" vote. In the concluding stages of the campaign, which was very closely fought, Mother Teresa intervened to urge that the faithful vote "no." A few months later, she gave an interview to the American magazine, Ladies Home Journal, which reached millions of housewives. She was asked about her friendship with Princess Diana, a friendship which has been evolving over the past several years, and also about Diana's then impending divorce. Of the divorce Mother Teresa said that "It is a good thing that it is over. Nobody was happy anyhow."

http://www.thepeacemission.com/mother-teresa.htm

Extractions: On 29th November 1928 she joined a religious order and took the name Teresa. The order immediately sent her to India. A few years later, she began teaching in Calcutta, and in 1948 the Catholic Church granted her permission to leave her convent and work among the city's poor people. She became an Indian citizen that same year. In 1950, she founded a religious order in Calcutta called the Missionaries of Charity. The order provides food for the needy and operates hospitals, schools, orphanages, youth centers, and shelters for lepers and the dying poor. It now has branches in 50 Indian cities and 30 other countries.

Book Review, "The Missionary Position", Freethought Today, August 1996
Freethought Today, August 1996. The Illusory Vs. The Real mother teresa. By Michael Hakeem, Ph.D. Review of The Missionary Position It s mother teresa.
http://www.ffrf.org/fttoday/august96/hakeem.html

Extractions: Review of The Missionary Position by Christopher Hitchens The origin of Mother Teresa's worldwide fame has been traced to an interview of her by Malcolm Muggeridge, televised on BBC, followed by a BBC filming in Calcutta of her and her work, "Something Beautiful for God," which Muggeridge initiated, and his enormously successful book by the same title (more than 300,000 copies sold, reprinted 20 times and translated into 13 languages). Before being catapulted overnight into world renown, she was an obscure nun whose name was not known to the general public and whom Muggeridge had never even heard of. This is the same Malcolm Muggeridge who often talks like a mystic and has for long nourished an intense love affair with Jesus. His book shows he was enraptured by its subject. Why should freethinkers read Hitchens' book? Surely Mother Teresa and her Missionaries of Charity are not unique. The global map is studded with charitable missions, some of them, like Mother Teresa's, serving the most wretched on the the face of the earth. But no other head of one has been accorded such significance and become the object of such fabulous adoration as she has. Hitchens writes: "Ever since Something Beautiful for God the critic of Mother Teresa in small things, as well as great ones, has had to operate against an enormous weight of received opinion, a weight made no easier to shift by the fact that it is made up quite literally of illusion." That is the nub of the issue. Freethinkers should be specialists in demolishing received opinion that has created reputations built on illusion and ignorance of the facts and not only that of Jesus. Hitchens, who has to be counted a freethinker, is such a specialist, and his book can serve as a model of how to go about the job of demolition. It is a powerfully written and tightly reasoned attack on the illusions that have made of Mother Teresa an impregnable icon.

Extractions: by Nicholas Markell Send an E-card with this image Narrative: Born Agnes Bojaxhiu in the city of Skoplie, Albania, Mother Teresa felt called at a young age to service in Gods Kingdom. She became a vowed religious in the Catholic order of the Sisters of Our Lady of Loreto, a community dedicated to the education of youth. While working in Calcutta during the early years of her religious life, she experienced a call within a call to minister to the poor. In time, Mother Teresa gathered around her a small group willing to help her in this effort. This congregation came to be known as the Missionaries of Charity, whose ministry remains service to the poorest of the poor, seeing in them the face of Jesus. In her earthly life, Mother Teresa gained immense recognition and worldwide attention. For many, her very name has become synonymous with holiness and purity. Like the Virgin Mary, Mother Teresa said yes to God. Her lifes witness calls us to trust in Gods providence and have faith in divine love, praising God in the lives of those outcasts in our midst. In the spirit of traditional icons of the Madonna and Child, this image shows Mother Teresa holding a small Indian boy as if holding in her maternal embrace Jesus himself. In a world of untouchables Mother Teresa courageously touched those rejected by society, bringing to the least of Gods people comfort and a depth of dignity no earthly wealth could purchase. Hers is one of the holiest lives to have graced the world in the past century.

Lesson Plan - Mother Teresa

http://teacherlink.ed.usu.edu/tlresources/units/Byrnes-famous/TERESA2.html

Extractions: Assessment In the opinion of many people, the world's greatest and most honored humanitarian today is an eighty-seven-year-old nun known as Mother Teresa of Calcutta, India. For at least seventy years, since the age of seventeen, she has totally devoted her life to charitable works. Today mother Teresa and her associates have more than six hundred missions of charity in one hundred and twenty countries on five continents. These are staffed by several thousand nuns plus many other volunteers. She has been chiefly responsible for establishing a number of medical centers to treat specific diseases. For example in 1964 she founded a leper colony in West Bengal. In 1985 she established a hospice for patients with AIDS in New York City. These are just two examples of many that could be mentioned. Mother Teresa has traveled throughout the world giving humanitarian service. Her home base is in the huge city of Calcutta, India, where she has spent much of her life personally administering to the needs of the sick and the poor. Calcutta is where she established her first formal Mission of Charity. She worked for many years as the principal of a Roman Catholic high school. While she was principal of the high school she also spent many hours each week assisting people in need. In 1948 Mother Teresa asked for and received permission from the Pope to live outside of the convent and live with and serve the poor in the streets of Calcutta. She spent three months at Patna Holy Family Hospital learning to be a nurse so she could know how to take care of the poor who were sick.

Mother Teresa Mother Teresa of Calcutta Agnes Gonxha Bojaxhiu , the future Mother Teresa, was born on 26 August 1910, in Skopje, Macedonia, to Albanian heritage. Her father, a well-respected local businessman, died when she was eight years old, leaving her mother, a devoutly religious woman, to open an embroidery and cloth business to support the family. After spending her adolescence deeply involved in parish activities, Agnes left home in September 1928, for the Loreto Convent in Rathfarnam (Dublin), Ireland, where she was admitted as a postulant on October 12 and received the name of Teresa, after her patroness, St. These of Lisieux.

Extractions: hostName = '.edthibodeau.com'; Main Maybe the sun really does rise in the west. Yesterday I ran a lighthearted post about a Slate article critical of Mother Teresa. Christopher Hitchens writes a regular column on that site called Fighting Words in which he takes the contrarian point of view on a variety of topics. I had never before heard a critical word about Mother Teresa in my life and put his screed into the same category as folks who are critical of Lincoln for being soft on statesâ rights. Sure, Mother Teresa was scornful of abortion, contraception, and divorce. But that is utterly consistent with the teaching of the Church to which she dedicated her life. Surely the incredible good she did for so many people far outweighs that political incorrectness, does it not? Beware the unexamined assumption. Nonplussed reader Markus commented that he had checked out Mother Teresa and âit wasnât pretty.â I read all of the links he provided and found, much to my surprise, that there are indeed a number of well publicized charges made against this woman on the fast track to sainthood. (The links are in the comments section immediately following the post.) The most serious charge is that she simply did nothing to alleviate anybodyâs suffering. In other words, her reputation is simply a myth. Her clinics, the places where she became famous for treating lepers and AIDS patients, are the primary evidence against her.

In 1950, she founded the order of Missionaries of Charity. In 1965, Pope Paul VI put the Missionaries of Charity under the control of the Papacy and gave authorization to Mother Teresa to expand her Order to other countries. Centers have opened almost everywhere around the world to assist lepers, the elderly, the blind, and people living with AIDS. Mother Teresa also opened schools and homes for the poor and abandoned children.

http://www.stories.org.br/teresa.html

Extractions: Teresa Home Stories Star Trek Nature ... Biblioteca Mother Teresa of Calcutta, internationally respected for her work to relieve the sufferings of the poor and dying, died on Friday, September 5, 1997. An Albanian originally named Agnes Gonxha Bejaxhiu, she was born in Aug. 27, 1910 and at the age of 18 she became a teacher in Calcutta until 1946, when she decided to aid the desperately poor of India. She began her work by bringing dying persons from the streets into a home where they could die in peace and dignity. Mother Teresa became an international symbol for devotion to the poor, destitute and dying during nearly 50 years of work. "The poor must know that we love them," was her simple message. She probably knew the words "Love is kind." They are in 1 Corinthians 13:4, "Charity [love] suffereth long, and is kind." When told, in 1979, that she had won the Nobel Peace Prize, for bringing hope and dignity to millions of people, she said: "I am unworthy." She surely knew that there is only one Who is worthy, the Lord Jesus, the Prince of Peace. And not only this, but that the Lord Jesus was kind. One day He saw a man who had been born blind. But the man couldn't see Jesus; he had never seen anything. Jesus healed his eyes so he was able to see, and that man was so thankful that he worshipped the Lord Jesus. Mother Teresa could not heal blind eyes, but she knew that being very kind she could help people to see how special Jesus is, and they would worship Him too.

Extractions: Thursday, August 7, 2003 Transcending religion: The politics of a saintly woman's provenance SKOPJE, Macedonia Mother Teresa will soon be beatified, one step short of becoming a saint. But this celebration of the divine in a human being has turned out to be as good a moment as any to fight about all the worldly things that usually get fought about in the Balkans, namely religion, ethnicity and history. The tale begins with a solitary fact that no one disputes: Agnes Gonxha Bojaxhiu, who became the world's most famous Roman Catholic missionary, universally known as Mother Teresa, was born here in Skopje in August 1910. (As for the exact date, some say Aug. 26, others Aug. 27.) The city was then an especially mixed corner of the Ottoman Empire, home to people whose origins were Turk, Greek, Serb, Bulgarian, Macedonian, Gypsy, Jewish, Vlach and Albanian, which is what Mother Teresa always said she was. After Mother Teresa's death in 1997, one of Macedonia's most famous artists, Tome Serafimovski, fashioned a nearly three-meter, or nine-foot, bronze statue of her that stands in central Skopje. As the Vatican moved to make her a saint, Serafimovski decided to donate a copy to Rome. Its delivery was to coincide with her expected beatification, the last step before sainthood, in October.
