Seven Quick Takes, St. Therese Edition!

-1-

St. Therese’s feast day was yesterday!!!!

I love this, and I post it every year. Bless whoever made this!

St. Therese was my confirmation saint. If you want to learn about how I picked her—or she picked me—go here.

Some St. Therese books? THOUGHT YOU’D NEVER ASK!

I love this edition of Story of a Soul, because it has an introduction by my friend Elizabeth Foss!

My FAVORITE book about St. Therese: I Believe In Love. Seriously. Desert island book, folks.

Want some St. Therese every day? Then you want Mornings With St. Therese.

And this one: 33 Days to Merciful Love. (also, that image of St. Therese is my favorite, and you can get it here.)

Want a movie? Here you go.

OR A STICKER or a MUG…..OR A KEYCHAIN?????

My parish has a lovely St. Therese shrine….


(Use the arrow keys to scroll through it!)

A parishioner carved that. Can you believe that? I can’t.

There’s a relic of St. Therese, and it’s just such a beautiful place to pray. It’s so beautiful that you often have to wait! :)

Right now I’m really missing the ST. Therese retreat center. This weekend would’ve bee the Women’s Silent Retreat weekend for the fall, and I almost always went to this one. Sigh.

If you know of places near Ohio that have silent retreat opportunities, please let me know? I MISS THEM!
