We,
God's People, of the Shrine of St.
Thérèse,
are a culturally diverse body with many gifts and talents. We celebrate
and proclaim the Catholic Faith by serving the Lord Jesus and His
People. Our challenge is to reach out and inspire a sense of community
and family through charity and mercy. Our compassion extends to the
larger community and the world.
From the links below, learn all
about the life and inspiration of
our patron saint. Hear her writings
narrated, see photographs and deepen
your faith with her "little ways."
This is the last photograph of the Saint, taken exactly one
month before her death. She is arranged in the cloister walk on
a long reclining chair. Therese is wearing a simple night veil
on her head, and over that a cap of white wool. The two straps
of the small night scapular can be seen around her neck. Illness
has made her face almost unrecognizable.
