St 
Teresa
 of 
Calcutta 
to 
Ireland Mother Teresa.

The Knights of St Columbanus have received a first-class relic of St Teresa of Calcutta from the Postulation Office (c/o The Mother Teresa Centre of the Missionaries of Charity) and arranged a national itinerary across the island of Ireland to facilitate its veneration by the public.

The relic began its journey this week in Belfast, visiting St Patrick’s church where a soup kitchen has recently been opened, part-funded by the local councils of the Knights of St Columbanus. In addition the relic visited Corpus Christi church in Ballymurphy where St Teresa once visited and where two of her fellow sisters of the Missionaries of Charity worked.
