Mother Teresa once said, "serve the poorest of the poor and to live among them and like them” (T. learning to give.org). Would it be possible to live among the poor and like them?

It is required to be able to serve God in the harsh world we live in today. We could face ridicule wherever we go, and we must have the courage to continue to do what is right regardless.
