    • Nilakshi Fernando says:

      Dear St. Therese,
      My Little Sister in heaven,

      I Love you so much.. and your Little way has always inspired me. My life is also so close to yours as I lost my mother at the age of 11 and then I was boarded in Convent School. My Father has always adored my Brother and Me. I was “special” to him. He also had a mental illness which he took medicine for. I Loved my Father just like you did.. Please pray for my father and mother who has left this earth.. please pray to GOD that they will be in heaven soon..
      Also pray for me and my brother and our families. I love you my little sister in heaven…

Please help her sister Traci to make good decisions as well and desolve her relationship with her boyfriend if it is not pleasing to God. Give her spiritual strength to guide her. Amen

    I started my novena with St. Therese at the age of 17.Someone gave me her booklet while I m on my way to inquire for my university entrance test. The woman who gave me is a stranger which i really don’t her personally. I followed what she said.Everything was a miracle, I was able to pass the entrance test though i was not able to review because I work as a household help during that time . I don’t have any extra time to review because I was so busy. With St. Therese intercession every prayer that I had has been granted with an excellent purpose.Thank you so much St. Therese’s and the woman who introduce me to know you. Please pray for me because I really need it- for my mother who suffered stroke so that she will recuperate.to my brothers and children, my grandparents and to all my relatives and friends. For my father who is in heaven right now.

    My little flower, I seek your help to bestow wisdom to my ex-husband to re-marry me again. He used to shower me with red roses, a symbol that gave me hope whenever I see you carrying flowers in your holy pictures. You know my heart and my hope, St Therese. I wish to see that bunch of red flowers from my ex-husband presenting them to me again.

  13. Jane says:

    My Dear St. Therese, Patron Saint of Little Ways,
    My eldest aunt (born 1896) wanted to become a nun at a young age and took the name Carmella upon confirmation; devout Catholics, I believe she and my grandmother both loved you and followed your example. Instead of becoming a nun, my aunt married and gave birth to 14 children with an abusive husband. She suffered from tuberculosis most of her life but she never lost her faith and always, always helped others in any small way that she could. She died of TB before I was born and I have only recently been able to meet her children who are still alive. (Thank you St. Anthony for helping me to find my lost family.) All of my life, I have tried to help others in small ways and perhaps you, my aunt and grandmother have been guiding me.
    Now I am trying to find peace for myself and my many cousins who know so little of our grandparents who emigrated from Europe in 1899.
    We are searching for our family history, particularly that of my grandmother, whose family was originally from the old Lorraine province in France. Please help us to find information about her so that we can better understand who we are. Gratefully yours.

  14. Maryanne derisodfarmstand says:

    You have always helped my family. I have told my children about you and you have answered their prayers. Please help my son find a job in Florida so he can be with his children. I know that you are always there for us. Thank You Lord for giving us St Theresa.

    • Catlyn Beason says:

  15. Melissa says:

    With an open heart, St.Therese;
    My aunt Jeannie, a woman of great love and selflessness, has been diagnosed with a serious medical concern….I ask that you be with her during this time, and through your care and intercession, she is returned to good health. With total thanksgiving, I humbly say: Thank You.

  16. catherine says:

  20. Katy says:

    I used this pictures on my Confirmation board this year! Can you do a Joan of Arc (she was also my confirmation saint)?

  21. Pascale says:

    When I started praying to my dear Therese, I received a Gardenia flower the next day from a man in his sixties who came out of no where, and gave it to me…

    I bought a red flower for a friend, but she left it in my car, I was still skeptical… But I came home five days ago, to find a beautiful pink flower, all blossomed and healthy in a green vase, with the bible near it…

    Therese, thank you for your signs of hope. I pray for you, from all my heart, to cure me from my illness. I have faith in you.
    If it is God’s will, please, give me a sign of what I am meant to do in this life. My vocation, perhaps, is to serve God, through my little ways, a method that I have lovingly borrowed from you…

    I love you..

    P.

  22. Charles says:

  23. therese says:

    St Therese My Patron Please bring peace back to my family and help my children to sort their lives out. Please help my daughter with her pregnancy and bless her with a healthy child. In her circumstances a little girl would be lovely if that’s God’s will. THANK YOU

  24. Dave H says:

    St. Therese,

    I have come across your likeness and story more than 6 different times today in preparing our new parish web site. I am not sure why but I am certain there is a reason since the searches I was doing at the time were not related to you or the saints in any way. You were the patron saint of our former parish and the fact that you were a Carmelite nun holds special meaning for me since my Uncle Terry – who I was very close to – was a Carmelite priest.

    Help me to understand your message for me. If there is something I am being called to do please help me to know what that is. Also, please help my family in this time of transition for us. We have faced many challenges over the last 10 years and are in the midst of moving. Help us to find peace and happiness in our new home.

    I will say a prayer to you and my Uncle Terry and ask for guidance tonight. I will also pray for both of you. Thank you for your intercession.

  25. langa ndzekeli says:

    thanks to you St.Therese for the beautiful rosary you presented me when you led me sister Mary – who presented with the rosary without question as if she was waiting for me. that struck me in some special way and again afterwards being led to sister therese only to be given st. therese’s prayer which is handy to me and her book which i still needed to collect. All that at the Aliwal Diocese in South Africa, Cape Province. They are true patrons of the loving St.Therese who is a guide I acquired. I ask her to give my regards to sister mary who passed. I still keep her words in my heart, “you shall conquer langa”. Thanks to you loving sister St. Therese.I ask you to protect me from evil. Give my love to my mom Mona who passed as you know she was a psychic medium you caused to help many. God Bless.

Please St Theresa Please help us keep the house and keep our employment. Give us the strength to keep our family together! Our children have had a hard time as well.
