Mother Teresa (1910–1997) touched the hearts of men and women around the world with her charity, compassion, and faithfulness. Now, you can experience a one-of-a-kind retreat with Mother Teresa in this series. Presented by gifted professor, author, and contemplative retreat leader Fr. Donald Goergen, O.P., these life-changing conferences are designed to capture your spiritual imagination and deepen your life with Christ.

Born Agnes Gonxhe Bojaxhiu, Mother Teresa founded the Missionaries of Charity, which ministered to the poorest of the poor. In Calcutta, she carried out Christ’s message of welcoming the least among us—orphans, refugees, lepers, the mentally ill, and many others.

Acutely aware of the plight of the poor and the demands of the Gospel, Mother Teresa grounded in her commitment to Christ and devotion to the Immaculate Heart of Mary. Faith, however, did not always come easily to this saintly woman; like so many of us, she struggled with “dark nights of the soul” and spiritual dryness. She saw herself as a mystic of darkness, finding Christ in a cloud of unknowing.

Praise for Donald Goergen 
“The finest professor with whom I have had the privilege to study, Don’s style is at once captivating and endearing.” – Fr. Raymond-Marie Bryce, O.P., Associate Pastor, Indiana University
 Fr. Goergen is a contemplative person, very much in tune with contemporary spirituality. He has carried many administrative responsibilities with steady competence. He possesses the Midwestern virtues of hard work and sober judgment, along with a ready humor.” – Benedict T. Viviano, O.P., biblical scholar
“Few have Fr. Don Goergen’s understanding of the elusive depths of Dominican spirituality. His living of our Dominican life shines through his body of published work on the Holy Spirit as well as his down to earth recorded lectures and retreats on Chardin and our own Eckhart.” – Mr. Joseph J. Komadina, O.P.
“Father Don Goergen, O.P., is a master of the spiritual life. He has not only studied Christian spirituality for many years but has put into practice in his adult life all of those key elements which enable one to grow in holiness…. Let Don show you with the way with his wisdom and insights.” – Father Harry Byrne, O.P., Professor Emeritus, Aquinas Institute of Theology
“Studying Christology with Donald Goergen, OP almost two decades ago forever changed my understanding of Jesus of Nazareth, and continues to shape my prayer and preaching to this day.  I am thrilled that Don’s research and insight will now be available to a wider audience.”
– Ann M. Garrido, Associate Professor of Homiletics, Aquinas Institute of Theology
“Don Goergen has spent his life meditating on the meaning of Jesus and his mission… His work, whether spoken or written, is always holistic: intellectually satisfying, strengthening the heart, socially and pastorally sensitive.” – Vivian Boland OP, socius to the Master of the Order of Preachers
