Saturday, SEP 11 (5 p.m. - 9 p.m.) at Mary Immaculate Parish (2800 Valwood Pkwy, Dallas, TX 75234)
It’s been 5 years since Mother Teresa was canonized a Saint. Most of us know her for her joy, holiness and service to the poorest of the poor. But the international volunteers know her for something else. Come join us to learn more about how Mother Teresa is still inspiring thousands every year to find their own Calcutta.
Project Finding Calcutta's mission is to quench the thirst of Jesus Christ by mobilizing volunteers into Corporal Works of Mercy serving the poorest of the poor locally. We look forward to seeing you to share more about the incredible work that we are doing in Dallas and to invite you to join our Service Saturdays.
