Description
Pictorial portrait of Agnes Gonxha Bojaxhiu
Religious painting of the Catholic nun of Albanian origin who founded the congregation of the Missionaries of Charity in 1950 with the initiative of helping those most in need, whose missionaries must fulfill the vows of poverty, obedience and chastity as well as being at free and whole-hearted service to the poorest of the poor. He stood out for his incredible dedication to the most disadvantaged; sick, dying, orphans… working for the growth of the congregation, first in India, then taking it to other parts of the world. She was beatified in 2003 by the pope Juan Pablo II and canonized by the Pope Francisco in 2015.
