think Mother Teresa showed a great deal of courage.

Mother Teresa began her crusade by becoming a missionary nun. Mother Teresa would travel around the world helping the less fortunate in providing them with homes and shelters.

She would also starve herself at times. She did this to show her love and compassion for the poor and hungry.

Mother Teresa died in 1997. People around the world mourned her death.

Mother Teresa is my hero and a person I believe showed a great deal of courage in her life.

The End
