Mother Teresa : Faith In The Darkness A deeply human and moving portrait of a modern-day icon Mother Teresa has symbolized human goodness, empathy and charity for decades and continues to do so after her death. But how did Agnes Bojaxhiu, a simple girl from an obscure corner of Eastern Europe, become such an international and influential figure?

Her vision led to the founding of the Missionaries of Charity, an order with a presence in over 120 countries today. Despite incessant scrutiny and criticism of her ideology, methods of care and financing, she carried on her work which has touched countless lives around the world and inspired many more. About the Author Greg Watts is a journalist and writer. He is the author of a number of books, including Labourer in the Vineyard: A Portrait of Pope Benedict XVI. (Product Description) |
