Catholic leaders in America recall their experiences working with Mother Teresa, calling her an “activist” and someone who knew how to get things done.

Sean Callahan, COO, Catholic Relief Services, says Mother Teresa listened to those in need and quickly found the resources to serve them.

William Canny, executive director of migration and refugee services recalls the power of her spirituality and the warmth he felt upon meeting her.
