- Saint Teresa of Calcutta, VirginOptional Memorial
Agnes Gonhxa Bojaxhiu, born in Epirus on August 26, 1910, responding to her missionary vocation, entered the Congregation of the Sisters of Loreto in 1929 before being sent to India. On September 10, 1946, she made a promise to serve the Lord among the poorest, so that, two years later, she fully dedicated herself to the apostolate among the people and the most needy, founding the Congregations of the Missionaries of Charity. Serenely accepting the trial of interior darkness, she fully manifested the victory of Christ’s light until she entrusted herself with confidence to eternal rest in Calcutta on September 5, 1997.
