The Mother Teresa Mug

Mother Teresa (1910 - 2003), also known as Saint Teresa of Calcutta, was perhaps the most famous Catholic figure of the late 20th century. Teresa lived in various places throughout her long life but most is most prominently known for her peace work in India. She is known as the founder of Missionaries of Charity, a Catholic collective of nuns that works throughout the world in caring for individuals with HIV/AIDS, TB, and leprosy. Teresa won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1979 and was canonized in 2016 by the Roman Catholic Church.
