Wednesday Mass. 10.01.25. Feast of St. Therese In this homily, I share how my mom first introduced me to the lives of the saints, leading me from the writings of St. Augustine to the burning simplicity of St. Thérèse of Lisieux. St. Thérèse’s “little way” shows us that holiness isn’t about being the smartest or the strongest, but about loving God in small, hidden, everyday acts. Her life reminds us to put Christ above everything and to trust that He will raise us up in His love.
