[Mother Teresa] Letter between two followers of Mother Teresa praising her work. 2 page Typed Letter Signed. 8 x 6 in. Dated Jan. 30, 1981. On Letterhead from Park Cottage, Robertsbridge, Sussex, UK. Letter regarding Mother Teresa's work and expressing a desire to educate children on whom she is. "You just go quietly ahead...just trying to work out how children may best me [sic] induced to appreciate Mother's work and to love her." "Start your book by imagining that you're sitting down with some children...and they ask you: 'Who is this Mother Teresa everyone's talking about? How come she's so famous? What's she at?'" They write about Mother Teresa's value of human life, and declare that the world needs more humanitarians such as her. "Write it out of your heart, not your head; God sends such souls in dark times like these to keep faith alive, doing all her crazy things like bringing dying men in from the streets to have just a few minutes when they are loved and wanted before leaving this world...Make children see that this lunacy makes sense whereas the sense of the abortionists and mercy kills makes lunacy." Ends with a short post script, praising the letter's quality: "What an enchanting letter from Mother, I love her style, and her resolution in not allowing a typewriter in the house." Signed in blue marker. Two small stray blue marks on page 2. In very good condition. US

ISBN10: 9380028709, ISBN13: 9789380028705, [publisher: Campfire, New Delhi] Softcover Paperback. In the 1940's, Calcutta had become decimated by famine, poverty, war and unemployment. Slums began to surface throughout the city and thousands were homeless, dying of disease or starvation. Alone and forgotten, these poorest of the poor were desperate for someone, anyone, to recognize their plight and help them. That help arrived in the form of Mother Teresa.Albanian-born, Mother Teresa knew from a young age that she wanted to become a nun and devote her life to God. What she could not envision, however, was exactly where that service to God would take her. Sent to Calcutta to teach history and geography from within the safe confines of a convent, Mother Teresa could not ignore the plight of the homeless and the dying. So she chose to give up everything in her life to serve those most in need.With nothing but her faith to guide her, she took to the slums with the hope that she could make a difference in the lives of at least a few lost souls. And with her pure heart and beautiful spirit, she wound up touching millions. Shipping may be from our Sydney, NSW warehouse or from our UK or US warehouse, depending on stock availability.
