Saint Thérèse of Lisieux APK

Application about the life of Saint Thérèse of Lisieux.

Thérèse Martin was born at Alençon, France on 2 January 1873. After the death of her mother on 28 August 1877, Thérèse and her family moved to Lisieux.

She lived each day with an unshakable confidence in God's love. "What matters in life," she wrote, "is not great deeds, but great love."

St Therese, age 23, She loved flowers and saw herself as the "little flower of Jesus," who gave glory to God by just being her beautiful little self among all the other flowers in God's garden. Because of this beautiful analogy, the title "little flower" remained with St. Therese.

She was canonized by Pope Pius XI on 17 May 1925. The same Pope proclaimed her Universal Patron of the Missions, alongside Saint Francis Xavier, on 14 December 1927.
