Mother Teresa of Calcutta

Few figures in modern history have enjoyed the renown of Mother Teresa of Calcutta, founder of the Missionaries of Charity.

The diminutive Catholic nun whose life was spent in service to, and as an advocate for, the poorest of the poor, died in 1997 and was beatified by Pope John Paul II in 2003.

As she advances toward sainthood, she remains an icon of faith and selfless dedication to others.

To commemorate the 100th anniversary of her birth (August 26, 1910), the Knights of Columbus Museum opened an exhibition on her life and mission on March 25.
