St. Therese’s Feast Day

Yesterday was the feast of St. Therese! Happy feast day to our little flower, Fr. Tim, and Katrina! To celebrate the feast day of our daughter’s patron saint and namesake, we went to San Antonio to celebrate Mass at the National Basillica of the Little Flower AND we saw the movie, THERESE.

What a very blessed day it turned out to be! The movie was just lovely. It was very nicely done and truely brought to life this simple and great saint. We have been waiting so long for the movie to come out and it was so exciting to finally see it!

The Mass of the Roses at the Basillica was awesome. They started out with vespers–sung. Our Therese was getting tired by that time so she wasn’t as good as she usually is, but she still received many graces. Afterward everyone received a blessed rose. We then went to see the relic of St. Therese and touched that sweet rose and our rosaries to it. Thank you Jesus for such a great saint and wonderful way to celebrate her life.
