A Mini Retreat with St. Teresa of Calcutta – Part Two
Chapter Seven – “The Dark Night of the Birth of the Society”
“The Plan of Our Lord is Being Fulfilled”
“With the permission of the Holy See, Archbishop Perier officially established the Society of the Missionaries of Charity in the archdiocese of Calcutta on October 7, 1950, the feast of Our Lady of the Holy Rosary…. Jesus’ call that Mother Teresa heard on September 10, 1946, was now recognized and confirmed by the Church.” [pp. 138-139]
Reflection:
St. Francis de Sales advised, “Ask for nothing, refuse nothing, but leave ourselves in the arms of divine Providence, without busying ourselves with any desires, except to will what God wills of us.” de Sales’ advice is fundamental to anyone who wants to do God’s Will faithfully and fully. Simply put, “Ask for nothing, refuse nothing.”
St. Joseph pray for us.
St. Andre Bessette intercede for us.
St. Francis de Sales pray for us.

May God Be Praised.
