Saint Therese of Lisieux 4.75 Plush Doll
Marie-Franoise-Thrse Martin was born on January 2, 1873, in Alenon, France. At just fifteen, she entered the Carmelite convent in Lisieux, where she developed her Little Way a spirituality of doing small things with great love. Despite suffering from tuberculosis, Thrse maintained profound faith and joy. She died at twenty-four, but her autobiography, Story of a Soul, has inspired millions. She was canonized in 1925 and declared a Doctor of the Church in 1997.

Saint Thrse teaches us that small acts of love have great power.

Feast Day: October 1 | Patroness of Missionaries and Florists

WHAT MAKES HER SPECIAL
SAINT THRSE OF LISIEUX is hand-designed by Little Drops of Water and crafted in soft, cuddle-ready fabric. She wears the brown habit and cream veil of the Carmelite order, with a bouquet of roses gathered in her arms the shower of roses she promised to send from heaven. At about 8 inches tall, she is sized to be carried through the day, tucked into bed at night, and hugged as often as a child likes.

Every Catholic Plush Doll from Little Drops of Water is hand-designed and made to be loved soft to hold, with embroidered features and no hard pieces, so a childs first encounter with a saint is something gentle, huggable, and entirely their own.

A REFLECTION
Saint Thrse promised to spend her heaven doing good on earth, and to let fall a shower of roses. Her Little Way was never about grand gestures only small things done with great love, the kind a child understands best of all. To place this soft Thrse in a childs arms is to hand them that promise: that the smallest acts of kindness, and the smallest person, are precious to God.
