I know I speak on behalf of the entire Anglican Family around the globe in extending sympathy and prayers to the Roman Catholic Community at the news of the death of Mother Teresa of Calcutta. Her ardent faith and her deep compassion are something that will be remembered for generations to come. Her greatest gift to us is not only the admonition to work for the poor, but to love the poor, the outcast.

So much of what Mother Teresa was able to accomplish is an inspiration and motivation for all Christian people. May she rest in peace and rise in glory.

The Revd Canon John L. Peterson
