ⓘ About Mother Teresa
Mother Teresa was born in Skopje in 1910 the capital of the Republic of Macedonia. While very little is known about her childhood, she has said that she felt a strong calling to become a nun and serve the poor while very young. While she was an eighteen year old, she joined a nunnery in Ireland and following several months of training, she was allowed to travel to India. In 1931, she formally took her vows and took the name of the patron saint of missionaries St Therese of Lisieux. When she arrived in India, she started working as a teacher. However, Calcutta which was her work station was a place of endemic poverty and this made a very strong impression on the young woman. Soon after she launched The Missionaries of Charity, a new order of nuns. Rising to prominence with the Publication Order of Religious Books series, Mother Teresa has since expanded their repertoire to include numerous successful works across various genres. Their writing style, characterized by compelling narratives and memorable characters, has earned them a dedicated global readership with millions of fans worldwide.
