Looking for an ‘elevator’ to heaven Saint Therese said the arms of Jesus would carry her to heaven. Let us ask for that same faith and trust.
Saint Therese suffered from tuberculosis and so should be declared the protecting saint, the guiding saint, the patron saint of the world in this time of pandemic. A novena is a prayer across nine days and in this novena we ask Therese to continue to “spend her heaven doing good on earth.”
