Midland: Charles Bray took this picture of the Statue of Saint Theresa of Lisieux in which you’ll see it at the entrance oh the Martyr’s Shrine Church. Theresa was the ninth child of saintly parents, Louis and Zélie Martin, both of whom had wished to consecrate their lives to God in the cloister. The vocation denied them was given to their children, five of whom became religious, one to the Visitation Order and four in the Carmelite Convent of Lisieux. Brought up in an atmosphere of faith where every virtue and aspiration were carefully nurtured and developed, her vocation manifested itself when she was still only a child.
