I have to say I was tremendously impressed with the organization that Mother Teresa has left, the cleanliness of the homes that they run, and the caring and compassion that they bring to the destitute in Kolkata. The work speaks for itself.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06278248432214466974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38893560.post-44482094056350672552010-02-01T09:58:03.342+13:002010-02-01T09:58:03.342+13:00She takes a licking and keeps on ticking!
