St. Thérèse of Lisieux, often called "the Little Flower," promised to spend her time in heaven doing good on earth. Though she lived a hidden life, after her death the 24-year-old French Carmelite became a Doctor of the Church and a beloved friend and intercessor for countless Catholics. It is often said that she sends down "showers of roses" to those who ask for her intercession.

Join us in prayer:

O Little Therese of the Child Jesus, please pick for me a rose

from the heavenly gardens and send it to me as a message of love.

O Little Flower of Jesus, ask God to grant the favors

I now place with confidence in your hands . .

(mention in silence here)

St. Therese, help me to always believe as you did in

God’s great love for me, so that I might imitate your “Little Way” each day.

Amen.
