Saint Thérèse of Lisieux (born Marie Françoise-Thérèse Martin ; January 2, 1873 – September 30, 1897), or Saint Thérèse of the Child Jesus and the Holy Face , O.C.D. , was a Roman Catholic French Discalced Carmelite nun widely venerated in modern times. She is popularly known as "The Little Flower of Jesus " or simply "The Little Flower ".

Thérèse has been a highly influential model of sanctity for Catholics and for others because of the "simplicity and practicality of her approach to the spiritual life". Together with Saint Francis of Assisi , she is one of the most popular saints in the history of the church.[2] [3] [4] Pope Pius X called her "the greatest saint of modern times" while his successor Pope Pius XI accorded her as the Patroness of the Gardens of Vatican City on 11 May 1927, granting her the title as the "Sacred Keeper of the Gardens'".

Thérèse felt an early call to religious life , and overcoming various obstacles, in 1888 at the early age of 15, she became a nun and joined two of her elder sisters in cloistered Carmelite community of Lisieux , Normandy . After nine years as a Carmelite religious, having fulfilled various offices such as sacristan and assistant to the novice mistress , and having spent her last eighteen months in Carmel in a night of faith , she died of tuberculosis at the age of 24. Her feast day is on October 1. Thérèse is well known throughout the world, with the Basilica of Lisieux being the second largest place of pilgrimage in France after Lourdes .
