Saint '''Thérèse of Lisieux''' was a nineteenth-century French Carmelite nun known as the Little Flower of Jesus. From her childhood she wanted to become a saint and to become perfected in God. Her deep desire to be constant to the will of God, to his wisdom and to his love led Thérèse to live a life of self-sacrifice and self-immolation and to put all of the strength of her heart’s love into drawing souls into the light of Jesus Christ. She ascended at the conclusion of her brief life. | Saint '''Thérèse of Lisieux''' was a nineteenth-century French Carmelite nun known as the Little Flower of Jesus.
