Be aware, little children, that ...eternity is waiting
St. Therese of Lisieux at age 15

St. Therese of the Child Jesus

Dear Family of Mary!


"Be aware, little children, that life is short, and eternity is waiting for you to give glory to God with your being, with all the saints."

Today is the Feast of St. Therese of Lisieux, Doctor of the Church! Little Therese was always a child in relation to God, always humble and simple in her devotion to Jesus, and so very brave in her desire to love God above all else! She challenges us all to grow in love and humility. She lived with Heaven as her goal with great constancy, especially in her suffering at the end of her life.

Let's ask brave little Therese to pray for us today, as we try to live Our Lady's words. Life is short! Eternity is waiting for us! May we enter eternity giving glory to God with our whole beings, just as St. Therese did! With St. Therese and all the saints we will give glory to God forever!
