Relics of St Therese

Postby aoise » Fri Sep 18, 2009 2:12 pm

Sincere thanks to all those who prayed for a successful visit of the Relics of Ste Therese to Portsmouth. We have had an incredible two days..simply amazing. People came night and day. Canon David said that we had experienced something of the 'Transfiguration' and this is so true, especially in that we didn't want to come down from the mountain.
But come down we must just as the disciples had to. Yet, whenever Heaven touches earth, something of it remains. I don't think Ste Therese will never leave us completely.

I am looking forward to this Sunday in Birmingham, and next Wednesday in Bristol; may St. Therese's 'visit' bring many blessings and miracles to England and Wales, and indeed to the rest of the world she has so much loving concern for.

God greatly magnifies the graces and spiritual power of His most humble servants:

"I am a very little soul who can offer very little things to the Lord."


Peace and Love.

"Believe that I shall be your true little sister for all eternity." St Therese spoke My God, I love you.
I love my spiritual children as much as my own soul, and even more....Padre Pio

The Sunday night vigil was indeed wonderful. I have never been to the Cathedral in Birmingham before, and it is a very large city [approx 5.3 million] - in the dark, and without a Sat Nav, I 'feel' that St. Therese guided me straight there; even through the back streets to the clerics' car park, where the security guys on the gate waved me straight in [on telling them I was in the Carmel 3rd Order]!

Although the interior was crowed, I got a seat at the front! All the officials were so polite and helpful. There was a spiritual aura that seemed to dictate there be no crabbiness or dissent of any sort in the congregation.

The only hiccup of the night was when the high tech computer assisted presentation failed. At that moment I was reading St.Therese's account of complexity 'doing her poor little head in', that she preferred 'the simple way' - , and I also felt that she was in effect 'saying', "guys, away with all the technical gizmos, keep things simple as well as to the point".


Peace and Love.
