A small, pocket-sized book of Mother Teresa's thoughts and prayers arranged as a novena, nine days of prayer and reflection, edited and introduced by Brian Kolodiejchuk, M.C., the postulator of her cause, and published by Doubleday in 2008. A prayer to Mother Teresa is the basis of each day's reflections. It closes with the prayer she adapted from John Henry Newman, beginning "Let me preach You without preaching."
