"He called a little child and had him stand among them. And he said: "I tell you the truth, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. Therefore, whoever humbles himself like this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven." (Matthew 18:2-5).

SAINT THÉRÈSE of the Child Jesus

“My strength lies in prayer and sacrifice; they are invincible weapons, and touch hearts more surely than words can do, as I have learned by experience.”

[Let us pray] O God, who open your Kingdom to those who are humble and to little ones, lead us to follow trustingly in the little way of Saint Thérèse, so that through her intercession we may see your eternal glory revealed. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God, for ever and ever. Amen!

Preparation for the coming of the Pilgrim Relic of St. Therese of the Child Jesus.

One more sleep to go as we all encounter and feel God’s presence through St. Therese of the Child Jesus first class Pilgrim Relic.

1 day left as we welcome St. Therese of the Child Jesus’ Pilgrim Relic. Let us all recognize the miracles that made Therese a saint.

Therese became a saint because of the way she responded wholeheartedly to God’s love and the grace of the Holy Spirit within her. While the Church recognizes the holiness and sanctity of many good people, official canonization is a long process. In the case of St. Therese, the process went swiftly. In the popular piety of the people, she became a saint in their hearts even before the official declaration.

Once she was declared Blessed, it took only two years for the necessary next two miracles to be approved. In 1925, two cures had been investigated and judged to be supernatural, through the intercession of St. Therese. The one involved Gabrielle Trimusi from Parma, Italy. Gabrielle had suffered from arthritis of the knee and tubercular lesions on the vertebrae.

May the story of miracles through the intercessory help of St. Therese be our inspiration to appreciate God’s loving guidance in our lives and to share that love to those underprivileged people in our society.
