Not everyone is happy that Mother Teresa is in the streets of
Calcutta. The rich do not like the reputation that her work
with the poor brings to their city, and her actions and beliefs
clash with their culture and traditions. In the slums, those with
opposing religious beliefs do not appreciate her being in their
midst. Still, this determined woman moves forward with God’s
work, dependent on His providence and protection.
Mother Teresa wants to provide a place for those
who are dying on the streets to receive care.
• What is the reaction of the locals when she
chooses a location that had previously been a
temple for a goddess?
• Why are they troubled by her presence?
