A towering figure of this century, Mother Teresa will long be remembered for her commitment and love towards the old, needy and the sick. Once, when asked what the true impetus for her work was, Mother Teresa had replied, with characteristic simplicity, 'We do it for Jesus'.
This book owes its inspiration and title to Mother Teresa: it is the only book she had asked to be written to explain the objectives of the Missionaries of Charity, the society she founded. Written by Father Le Joly, her close associate and the spiritual advisor of the Missionaries of Charity for over forty years, the book is an inside account of the life and work of Mother Teresa. The narrative is based on Mother's own words, in public or in private conversations, her letters and the testimonies of those who worked alongside her.
The second edition with a new Foreword and Afterword written after her death, brings this remarkable story up to date and makes it an essential read for all those who have felt inspiried by Mother Teresa's life and work.
Edward Le Joly is a Jesuit priest and was, for many years, spiritual advisor to the Missionaries of Charity in Calcutta.
