St. Therese, Patron Saint of Foreign Missions


Saint Thérèse is one of the most popular of all modern saints. She is known as the “Little Flower of Jesus". A French nun, Therese had a pious devotion to the Holy Face of Jesus. She felt that she was too little and fragile to 'climb the rough stairway of perfection', and devised an 'easy', new way to attain Heaven. This way, famously called Therese's 'Little Way', consists of doing many small acts with great love. Therese's inspiring autobiography, The Story of a Soul, is read worldwide. Saint Therese is a Doctor of the Church.
