Therese said, "In an instant Jesus,

content with my good will,

accomplished the work I had not

been able to do in ten years."

Therese Martin died

on September 30th,

1897 because of her

tuberculosis.

Therese had been

becoming ill quite

often, but she

considered it a

spiritual journey.

Therese Martin was born on January

2nd, 1873.

Therese's mother died of breast cancer in 1877.

Therese was diagnosed with tuberculosis. She woke up one morning coughing up blood.

13 year-old Therese had a conversion at Christmastime from Jesus, and she decided to become a Carmelite nun.

She was known for being

extremely faithful to God

and never doubting him

when times were bad. She is

called the "little flower."

She was part of the

Carmelite nuns, which are a group of Roman Catholic nuns worshiping Christ.
