Happy ( Belated ) Feast Day of St. Therese!
“I learned from experience that joy does not reside in the things about us, but in the very depths of the soul, that one can have it in the gloom of a dungeon as well as in the palace of a king. ”
St. Therese, Pray for us!
It has been such delight to spend the 2023 reading her words and praying with her! This year marks the 150 year since her birth in a small town in France. The first Journey with the Saints Box that we created is Journey with St. Therese. Her ‘little way’ has been a blessing to this little violet who as a convert was so intimidated by the saints. It has been a blessing to spend the beginning of the year working on portraits of her. That time of prayer and contemplation was a gift. I hope our little works help others begin to know and love her, too.
