TODAY A SPECIAL INTERVIEW OF OUR REPORTER FRANCESCA FELLA TO MOTHER TERESA OF CALCUTTA…don’t miss it!!!
-Good morning, I’m Francesca, it’s an honour for me to have an interview with a special person who I admire so much. Thanks for the chance that you’re giving me.-Oh thank you, it’s a pleasure for me!-Can we start?-Of course.-What do you remember of your childhood and adolescence? - My real name is Agnes Gonxha, I was born in an Albanian family. When I was only twelve years I felt the first call of God and at the age of eighteen I left my home in Skophie and I joined the Sisters of Loreto, an Irish community of nuns. • Memorial house of Mother Teresa.
-When did your mission start?-Six weeks later I moved to India where I taught for 17 years in Calcutta and while I was teaching I heard my “call within a call”. I decided to devote myself to caring for the sick and poor because I glimpsed around me the suffering and the poverty.
- How did you do it?-I moved into the slums with the poorest of Calcutta and I organized dispensaries and outdoor schools.I founded the Order of the Missionaries of Charity in 1948 and today,thanks to our care, we can find severalcentres serving the destitutes in 90 countries.
-What was the reaction of the people?-I had the recognition of many people,in fact, they followed my vision of life becoming voluntary helpers. The authorities helped me too through financial support.-Certainly your work has been acclaimed throughout the world.-Yes,as a matter of fact,I have received a number of awards including the Pope John XXII Peace Prize in 1971, the Nehru Prize and the Nobel Peace Prize in 1979. • Nobel Peace Prize
-What is your vision?-My vision is not only being a messenger of God,but also persuading many people to love the others and to discover the advantage that all could obtain from living in peace in a world where selfishness doesn’t reign and solidarity is very important .- In my opinion, you are worthy of being considered a leader and surely people have been conquered by your unselfishness and your unlimited nobility of soul.-Thank you very much. God bless you!
