Saint of the Day for October 1: St Thérèse of Lisieux (Jan. 2, 1873 – Sept. 30, 1897)

By Franciscan Media - “I prefer the monotony of obscure sacrifice to all ecstasies. To pick up a pin for love can convert a soul.”... These are the words of Thérèse of Lisieux, a Carmelite nun called the “Little Flower,” who lived a cloistered life of obscurity in the convent of Lisieux, France.

Her autobiography, The Story of a Soul, is read and loved throughout the world.
