The best social worker who can do lot of things for poor people

Mother Teresa was 38 when she took the vows of poverty, purity, and obedience. Giving up the Habit of the Sisters of Loreto, she took to wearing a cheap white cotton sari with a blue border. Sister Teresa then went to Patna to train herself as a nurse. She realized the importance of such training in her venture to help the poor who lived in dirty and unhealthy habitation. After completing her training, Sister Teresa came back to Kolkata and began her life’s vocation—to live among the poor and to help them. Soon, she became a common figure in the slums and the streets of Kolkata. Her white sari, her fluent Bengali and her unrelenting effort to improve the hygiene and literacy in the slums, soon made her an endearing figure. Rising early at dawn, the Sister worked with dedication and inner spiritual strength that comes with sincere prayer. At this time, Sister Teresa, so sure of the virtue of her vocation, took Indian nationality. Her will to help the needy became stronger with each passing day. With continuous work, their community grew. Soon, Sister Teresa began thinking seriously about starting a congregation. This was approved on October 7th, 1950. Thus, the constitution of the “Society of the Missionaries of Charity, ” came into being. It was the day of the feast of the Holy Rosary. After five years, the congregation became papal as more and more Sisters joined the congregation and devoted their lives to the sick and the poorest of the poor.
