The U.S. Embassy in Albania has commemorated the anniversary of Mother Teresa’s Canonization, honoring the great woman of Albanian origin who dedicated her life to easing the suffering of the poor.

Describing her as a symbol of charity and care, the U.S. Embassy emphasizes that this day serves as a powerful reminder of the importance of small acts in inspiring change.

“Today, the world celebrates International Day of Charity, paying tribute to Mother Teresa, the Albanian-born saint who devoted her life to easing the suffering of the poor through charity, volunteering, and caring. On the same day, Albania also observes its own National Day of Mother Teresa. This day serves as a powerful reminder of the significance of small actions and their ability to inspire change, echoing Mother Teresa’s words: “I alone cannot change the world, but I can cast a stone across the waters to create many ripples,” reads the post of US Embassy.
