St. Therese of Lisieux Comments
Generations of Catholics have admired this young saint, called her the "Little Flower", and found in her short life more inspiration for own lives than in volumes by theologians. Yet Therese died when she was 24, after having lived as cloistered Carmelite for less than ten years. She never went on missions, never founded a religious order, never performed great works. The only book of hers, published after her death, was an brief ... Continue Reading

Dear St. Therese of Lisieux,
I've heard so much about you. I never asked for your help before but I will do it now.
Dear St. Therese: PLEASE HELP ME! I am in a bad situation right now and I need your help now desperately. Please help me: I need to pass all my exams and get my B.A. degree.
Also please bring me back to my dear M. I love him so much and we had a perfect relationship. All he wanted was to marry me but we seem to be in a negative energy, please bring him back together, I want to marry him, that was everything he wanted from me when we were together, I don't know what happened, but I want him back, I want to marry my dear M.
Will you help me? PLEASE! I never asked you for anything before
In Love, and I promise to post a HUGE thank you if you answer my prayer,

Thank you St. Therese for choosing me, and blessing me by being my confirmation saint.
St Therese, I desperately need your help. I am at absolute breaking point. Please help my family to understand why I need to make the decisions that I am and help them to realise this is what I need to do. Please help them to work with me instead of against me. Please give all of us enlightenment, understanding, empathy, compassion and patience. Please help me to be able to fix up my health and my studies in the way I know it needs to be done. Please help me to be calm and rational so that I can do what I need to. I have never felt more alone and burdened in my entire life and at a major crisis point. Please intercede for me and send me a rose as I desperately need your help now more than ever.
St. Therese, thank you for sharing your life to us. Please include us always in your prayers. Your love of God is so inspiring.
St. Therese merci for coming to me and bringing me a red rose when I was at my sickest. I did not ask for your intercession but you came anyway. I am looking for the answer to what the color signifies. White indicates a successful crossing over after death but what does red mean? Merci beaucoup
Saint Therese, Please intercede for me and bring Terry D. back into my arms. It's been over a year and I pray every single day for her return. I ask in Jesus name AMEN!
very helpful. my granddaughter is making her first commion in April 2013 after much searching she decided to choose St. Therese as her parton saint she loves flowers and her name Calli means beauitful flower so this is who she want for her patron saint.
Dearest St. Terese of
The Little Flower,
Please pray for my entire family. Pray for peace,health, happiness and safety .
Wise decisions are necessary to keep all loved ones under Mother Mary's protection and continued guidance.
God Bless us all. Please keep all safe and healthy.
St Therese, I feel so alone. I am really struggling in several aspects of my life (two in particular) and everything that I try to do is always met with resistance which makes it even more difficult to sort out. Please help my family to understand my problems and to be helpful and supportive before it is too late. Please let them consider all aspects of the situation and to accept and respect the decisions I am making and realise why I am doing so. Please help them to realise that the risks are worth taking because the alternative is definitely not working. I humbly pray to you to intercede for me and to help me to sort out these problems. Please be with me and guide me and give me strength, endurance and commitment to get through this. Amen
Thank you St. Therese, for the longest time I've been praying for a job. Then I turned to you. I prayed your novena for nine days and to my pleasant surprise, I was called for an interview. I don't yet know the outcome of the interview but I trust that God will give me a better and well paying job.
St Therese, please let it be remembered and taken into account. Amen
Thank you Therese for the beautiful rose that you gave to me last night. I know now that you do indeed hear my prayers and I only ask (very humbly) that you continue to intercede for me and my special intentions. I am sorry for doubting you.
St Therese, please help me and give me the strength, assistance and support that I desperately need to get through this before it is too late. Please intercede for me. Amen.
St. Therese, I don't think I've really prayed to you much...maybe once. I am stuck in my decision to stay with my boyfriend or not. I know he loves me and I love him very much, but his secret that he kept from me hurt me and betrayed me so bad. Please. I know I don't know much about you and I'm sorry I have never spoken with you (I think), please let me know if he is the man for me. Please let us know if we are who God meant for each other. Please. No more confusion...just clear definite answers.. Please change him and help him completely give himself to Christ. I as for us to truly give ourselves over and let God speak to us. May we please hear His voice and see your miracle. If there is any chance for us to survive and live a happy, holy, honest, and faithful life together please save us and keep us under your protection from sin and unfaithfulness. Please please St. Therese. Thank you so much. Please send me any message God would have for me.
