St. Thérèse of Lisieux wanted to be a missionary, heroically proclaiming the faith in faraway countries, even to the point of death.
This desire only increased after she joined a cloistered, Carmelite convent, and was nearly fulfilled when her convent received a request for missionary sisters.
Due to poor health, she never left the four walls of the convent. Yet, St. Thérèse was proclaimed by Pope Pius XI as a copatroness of the missions, along with St. Francis Xavier.
Why is that? How could a Carmelite nun become a little missionary? Discover how St. Thérèse was a missionary both during life and after death in this entertaining historical graphic novel on the life of the Little Flower!
