Together, we can meet their need.
When Mother Teresa founded the Missionaries of Charity in 1950, she told the Vatican that their work would be to care for “the hungry, homeless, the crippled, the blind – all those who feel unwanted, unloved and uncared for.” That’s our work, too.
Mother Teresa inspired the world to see those in need as “Jesus in disguise.” Please be with them in their need. You make all the difference.
