Donna-Marie Cooper O’Boyle: Life-long Catholic

Donna-Marie is a life-long Catholic who shares with Marcus the faithfulness of God through her life’s many difficulties. She also talks about being “introduced” to Blessed Mother Teresa by another living saint, (now Servant of God) Rev. John A. Hardon S. J. Donna-Marie’s decade-long friendship with Blessed Mother Teresa of Calcutta led to a long correspondence and meetings around the world. Following in the footsteps of Blessed Teresa, Donna-Marie became a lay Missionary of Charity and founded a branch of the lay Missionaries of Charity. Today, Donna-Marie is passionate about encouraging others to follow in the footsteps of her blessed friend, caring for the poorest of the poor.
