Agnes Bojaxhiu was born on 26 August 1910, in Uskub, in the Kosovo Province of the Ottoman Empire (now the city of Skopje, Republic of Macedonia). Her parents were Albanians:her father, Nikollë, was originally from Mirëdita (Northern Albania) and her mother, Dranafille, came from Đakovica (Gjakovë). Raised as a Roman Catholic by her parents, Agnes' father died when she was about eight years old. According to a biography by Joan Graff Clucas, during her early years, Agnes was fascinated by stories of the lives of missionaries and their service and by the time she was twelve, she was convinced that she should commit herself to a religious life. She left her home at age 18 to join the Sisters of Loreto as a missionary. Agnes would never again set eyes on her mother or sister.

According to Mother Teresa's Indian Diplomatic passport, She was born on 26 August in Skopje, Macedonia in that time 1948 one of six republics of state Yugoslavia. But, the relatives who still live in Skopje will emphasized that she was born on 26 of August 1910, baptised August 27 in the Roman Catholic Church in Skopje and that day is count as a day of her birth. There is a confusion about hers nationality and about the history of her family. Mother Teresa spent 18 years of her life in Skopje, before she went to Ireland in 1928 to join the Institute of the Blessed Virgin Mary, sailing later, to India as a teacher
