MOTHER TERESA: VIRGIN MARY GAVE US A BUILDING

These words of classic apostate Roman Catholiism should be an absolute affront to anybody who truly loves Jesus.

So now think about what it means when these words of idolatry are accepted as having come from someone who was supposedly a Christian:

When the Congregation of the Missionaries of Charity had just been established, we needed a building for the Congregation's motherhouse. To get it, I promised the Virgin to pray 85,000 Memorares.
Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to your protection, implored your help, or sought your intercession was left unaided. Inspired by this confidence, I fly to you, O virgin of virgins, my Mother.
To you do I come, before you I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in thy mercy hear and answer me. Amen.
There were not too man of us yet. How were we going to take care of our debt? I came up with a solution: to bring together all the children and the sick we were taking care of in Nirmal Hriday and Shishu Bhavan. I taught them the prayer and we all promised to pray it. The building did not take long to become ours.
(Mother Teresa In My Own Words, 63)
