Mother Teresa's tomb at her convent in Kolkata

Mother Teresa died on September 5, 1997 when she was 87 years old.  Pope John-Paul II beatified her on October 19, 2003.

I attend Mass at 6:00 a.m. in the morning at the Mother Teresa's Convent...It is very special to pray with the sisters!  There are about 75 young novices: they are probably close to 20 years old!

After mass we eat breakfast with the other volunteers and then we go to our site to volunteer.
