This October, we invite you to celebrate Saint Thérèse of Lisieux, the Little Flower, and remember the millions of children around the world served by the Pope’s Missions.
Though Saint Thérèse never left her convent in France, her heart was with the missions. That’s why she is honored as the patroness of missionaries and the universal Church—especially in places that are too poor, too young, or face persecution to stand on their own.
Like her, we are called to be missionaries of love and hope, no matter where we are. Through our prayers, sacrifices, and support, we can reach children across the globe and help share the light of Christ with them.
