About Father Albert Castellino: Father Castellino knew and worked with St. Teresa of Calcutta in his native country. He remembers her ministering to a man dying in the streets, who asked her why she was helping him. When she told him she loved him, he said that he could die in peace knowing that he was loved. St. Teresa of Calcutta remains an inspiration to Father Castellino. He transferred to the Redemptorists of the Denver Province in 1986 and enjoyed preaching throughout the United States, Canada and Japan until health issues necessitated his retirement in 2005.
