New Book about Mother Teresa


Donna-Marie Cooper-O'Boyle is now taking pre-orders on her new book about Blessed Teresa of Calcutta. I was privileged to read the manuscript. Donna has composed a loving distillation of Blessed Teresa's thought based upon a decade of correspondence with the saint of the ghettos. It is A Tale of Two Mothers, of how a chance meeting of the small, dynamic Albanian nun with a young American housewife became a conduit of grace for many. One comes away convinced that the greatest power under heaven is not wealth or political influence but the loving spirit of a mother, for spiritual motherhood is especially efficacious in bringing a healing touch into the many and intangible Calcuttas of the modern world.

There will be a full review coming soon.
