Dear Father Michael,
may God loves you for all the love you have given to each one of us. Keep the joy of giving Jesus, just Jesus, to all who come in contact with you. I would be grateful if I could turn to you for spiritual help, but I am completely empty and too small. Only Jesus can stoop down so low to fall in love with someone like me. Pray for me, that my heart and my lips do not slip out a "No" – when Jesus asks.
In Jesus, Your M. Teresa, MC
(letter of St. Mother Teresa to Father Michael van der Peet, November 16, 1975)
