God, our loving Father,
You have given us a beautiful example of love
in action through Your daughter, Mother Teresa.
In her life she showed us how to follow Jesus
by loving and serving others.
She joyfully fed the hungry,
rallied for the poor and unwanted,
cared for the sick and the dying,
and sheltered the homeless.
May we imitate her love and generosity
by reaching out to Your needy ones.
Thank You for the gift of Mother Teresa.
May she now rest in Your arms eternally. Amen.
