Friends of the Rosary,

Today is the feast of St. Thérèse of the Child Jesus and the Holy Face (1873-1897), popularly known as “the Little Flower.”

St. Thérèse, a cloistered, discalced Carmelite nun, is the patroness of all foreign missions and the patroness of France.

She died of consumption on September 30, 1897, at the age of 24, and was canonized in 1925. In 1997, Pope St. John Paul II declared her a Doctor of the Church.

Her interior life is revealed through her autobiography, “Story of a Soul.”

“The Little Flower” attained a high degree of holiness by carrying out her ordinary daily duties with perfect fidelity, having a childlike confidence in God’s providence and merciful love.

She was always ready to serve others at all times, prayed especially for the priests, and had a great love of the Church and a zeal for the conversion of souls.

The month of October is dedicated to the Holy Rosary. The Memorial of Our Lady of the Rosary is celebrated on October 7.
