The Poorest of the Poor in Stephen Hand's Catholic Voices in a World on Fire (contributed to)

Synopsis:

Catholic Voices in a World on Fire anthology, written by Stephen Hand, contains 'The Poorest of the Poor' a piece I wrote about my volunteer work at Mother Teresa's in Washington DC. The homeless men and women I worked with were dying of aids disease. A copy of the book was placed in The Blessed Mother Teresa Center in Rome, Italy.

Book Excerpt:

THE POOREST OF THE POOR
by Judy Jones


Oil portrait of Mother Teresa by Judy Jones


Walking down the hill to the bus, with snow blowing in my face, hot tears ran down my freezing cheeks. I felt powerless to do anything but totally rely on God at that moment. Otherwise, I couldn't come back to this house in the morning. The suffering was too great inside those doors. Mother Teresa's deep love for the poorest of the poor is the only reason I went through them today.
