For the feast of St. Thérèse of Lisieux, the Communications Office is proud to present three reflections on her life and teaching by Fr. Giampiero Molinari, a member of the Italian Province. These three conferences were part of the ongoing formation program for the European region. The first conference was given in October 2023, the 150th anniversary of the birth of the saint and the 100th anniversary of her beatification by Pope Pius XI. The third and final conference was given on April 20, 2024.
Each conference includes questions for reflection.
We hope you enjoy these presentations on Thérèse’s life experiencing mercy and grace, Thérèse’s “Little Way,” and Thérèse and the Church and are drawn to a further reflection of them in your own life.
