Do all that you do with LOVE.

😇 Prayer opens our hearts to the needs of the Church. For the Guardian Angels’ memorial, we’re sharing Saint Teresa of Avila’s account of prayer and her concern for the faith.

✝️ Saint Thérèse’s last hours were marked by terrible suffering. Mother Agnès testified to her final words, her gaze upon the crucifix, and the change she witnessed at the end.

I ❤️ my Carmelite vocation!

[Vatican News @VaticanNews]

Pope Leo meets with Carmelite nuns in Lourdes.

The nuns live in a monastery founded in 1876, just across from the Grotto of the Apparitions. They lead a contemplative life marked by prayer, silence, and fraternal communion.

☔ The chapel was nearly ready for the Blessed Sacrament, and Saint Teresa expected the faithful to come for Holy Mass. Despite her anxiety, a benefactor trusted God to provide.

🧶 In his Letters, Brother Lawrence urges continual conversation with God, sustained by love rather than a search for consolation. His counsel reaches into ordinary daily life.
