Answer:
For Missionaries of Charity sisters in Calcutta, where the late Mother Teresa founded the congregation, each day is very, very similar -- come rain or shine, dust storm or flood.
Their strict schedule was disrupted when Mother Teresa died on the night of Sept. 5, and the crowds pouring into the motherhouse since the MC founder´s burial there on Sept. 13 continue to disturb things somewhat.
"But the morning bell rings at 4:40 a.m. to wake us up," an MC council member who pleaded for anonymity told UCA News in explaining their routine.
They have 20 minutes to wash, get dressed and assemble in the chapel for morning prayers and reading of the Psalms followed by meditation. At 6 o´clock every morning, a visiting priest offers Mass.
The novices prepare the breakfast that the sisters take at 7 a.m. "It consists of ´chapatis´ (flat bread), a banana and tea," said the nun, wiping perspiration from her face with folds of her blue-bordered white sari.
