Missionary Sisters of Charity in Scotland - Catholic Stock Photo

The Missionaries of Charity were founded in India in 1950, by Mary Teresa Bejaxhiu. The Sisters serve the poorest of the poor throughout the world. In the United States, they maintain five Centers of Formation, as well as many soup kitchens, shelters, camps for poor children, homes for the dying and other ministries. The order survives on the Love of God, and by donations given by persons of all faiths.
