read the passage carefully:
1. Mother Teresa was God's special gift to mankind. Her life was a story of love and compassion. To millions of the sick, abandoned poor and the dying, she brought help and relief. She dedicated her life to the service of the 'poorest of the poor', as she believed that in serving the poorest, she was serving God.
2. Mother Teresa was born Agnes Gonxha Bojaxhiu in Skopje, then in Albania, Yugoslavia, on August 27, 1910. as a twelve-year-old, she decided to become a nun, and at 18, she joined in Order of Loreto nuns in Ireland. On joining the Order, Agnes took on the name 'Teresa'. There,in that distant land, she would get the call to go to India. 'It is a missionary country like the countries of Africa,' she explained when asked why she had chosen India. And it was in Calcutta that she arrived in 1929, to become a teacher in a Loreto school. ''I love teaching most of all,'' she said. She devoted 17 years of her life to it.
3. On September 10, 1946, while on a train journey to Darjeeling, she heard the 'Voice of God' from within, asking her to leave the convent and serve the 'poorest of the poor' of Calcutta. ''The message was clear,'' she said, ''but I had to wait for the permission from the Pope to be released from the Loreto Order and to start on my own.''
