Hi Thomas,

You said:

• Who is called the patron saint of missions even though she never left her convent?

There are four patron saints of missions:

1. St. Francis Xavier
2. St. Peter Claver
   
3. St. Therese of Lisieux
   
4. St. Leonard of Port Maurice
   

You are probably talking about St. Therese of Lisieux who is also a Doctor of the Church.

You said:

• Who is the sister who won the Nobel peace prize for her work with the poor of India?

That is Blessed Mother Teresa of Calcutta. She will probably be canonized a saint some day.

Here is the web site that is promoting her cause for sainthood:

Hope this answers all of your questions,

Mike
