A very special day, indeed! My dearly loved Therese, my son Fr. Ben's birthday, and I get to assist my Bishop at our parish's Confirmation Liturgy this evening! I love incensing the Book of Gospels! Lots of smoke!! Therese, I entrust my day, my family, and John's daughter to you on your feast!

Even at a young age, she had the greatest confidence in the power of prayer. Littleness of heart is the key! Jesus took Therese and her humble request into His Arms back then. Mark 9:36 Taking a child, He set him before them, and taking him in His arms, He said to them, 37 "Whoever receives one child like this in My name receives Me; and whoever receives Me does not receive Me, but Him who sent Me.

Yes always full of little surprises for instance I learned yesterday that her body was moved to its final resting place on the 26th March I never knew that how special for me as its my birth date
