The life of St. Therese is a lesson to all men of spiritual greatness to be achieved by perfect love of God and total consecration of all our actions, even the smallest, to His greatest honor and glory. This famous author offers many spiritual gems of wisdom and inspires renewed affection for the incomparable child saint who "ran as a giant in the way" to sanctity. Cum Permissu Superiorum. 157pp. PB.
Delightful.

John Beevers did much to make Therese known and loved in English-speaking countries. While Fr.

You will enjoy.
