PRAGUE, Czechoslovakia — Mother Teresa today was presented with the keys to a former army villa as a gift of the state, the official CTK news agency reported.
The report did not say what the Prague villa would be used for, but stated it would “be available to those who need help . . . the old and the helpless, sick children or other disadvantaged groups.”
Mother Teresa, a winner of the Nobel Peace Prize, met with President Vaclav Havel earlier this month. During that tour she established the order of the Daughters of Christian Love in Czechoslovakia.
