"A United Nations stamp to honor a Catholic saint?
"Yes.
On Aug. 12, the UN issued a commemorative stamp honoring Mother Teresa,
one of the most celebrated women and Catholic missionaries of the 20th
century. On the right side of the stamp appears one of Mother Teresa's
most celebrated quotes: 'Not all of us can do great things. But we can
do small things with great love.'"
In a recent commentary, Dr. Ines Angeli Murzaku, Professor of Ecclesiastical History, Director of the Catholic
Studies Program, and Founding Chair of the Department of Catholic
Studies at Seton Hall University, reflected on this and another honor given to Mother Teresa by the United Nations.
