Mother Teresa: "Angel of Mercy"
Remembering the Mother
A nun places a candle on Mother Teresa's grave after a special 'Thanksgiving'
prayer in Kolkata on December 22, 2002.
After taking a medical training course to prepare for her new mission, she went into the slums of Calcutta to start a school for children. They called her "Mother Teresa". In 1950, the community she founded, the Missionaries of Charity, was officially recognised by the Archdiocese of Calcutta. The Vatican recognised the organisation as a pontifical congregation the same year.
