She began by writing down her childhood memories at the request of her sisters in the Lisieux Carmel. St. Th?r?se?s simple memories became a Catholic classic for the ages, read by millions and translated into nearly every language. This is the power of her simple soul, her ?little way?.In this short work, full of Th?r?se's joyful spontaneity and fervor, you will discover the great themes of her spirituality, called the ?Little Way?: joy and confidence, complete abandonment to God's merciful love, and her passion for the Church?s missions, for which she is the patron saint.Though written to her Carmelite sister, Th?r?se's passion is meant for us, as well: "Our mission as Carmelites is to form evangelical workers who will save thousands of souls whose mothers [and fathers] we shall be." Read this ?little book? that St. Th?r?se may also become your spiritual sister.
