RIPON – A documentary on the ministry of Mother Teresa with the poorest of the poor in Calcutta will be shown tonight at St. Patrick’s Church as the three-day Lenten Parish Mission continues. The documentary film, which will be shown in the Parish Hall, follows the work of Blessed Teresa of Calcutta among the destitute and the dying in India during a span of 10 years. The nun who founded the Missionaries of Charity is now called Blessed following her beatification, a step toward sainthood.
