The Sisters of Charity of Mother Teresa of Calcutta are one of three of the women's congregations in Gaza; they too chose to remain there despite having the option to evacuate. The sisters remained among the suffering as they always do.
The Patriarch of Jerusalem of the Latins, His Beatitude Card. Pierbattista Pizzaballa, on the occasion of his pastoral visit to Gaza had visited the home where the Sisters of Charity house disabled children and young people.
I was hungry and you gave me food. I was thirsty and you gave me to drink. I was naked and you clothed me, a stranger and you welcomed me, in prison and you visited me. Every time you have done these things to one of my least brothers you have done it to me.
On that occasion the patriarch had touched the work that these mothers carry on, silent, hidden. Loving the Lord and walking in the midst of His people, the sisters of Mother Teresa, even here in the Holy Land heal the wounded limbs of humanity, protect those most exposed and guard the body of Christ, even under the bombs.
