I Would Like to Travel the World: Therese of Lisieux: Miracle-Worker, Doctor, and Missionary - Paperback
by Guy Gaucher (Author)
Since the turn of the twentieth century, "Thérèse the miracle-worker" has "let fall a shower of roses" -- thousands of real-life miracles -- experienced by people of every walk of life worldwide, from World War I soldiers to children, from monks to James Bond-like figures. Fascinating modern-day healings are recorded in this book; through them you will see how God's merciful love always waits for those who believe.
St. Thérèse's relics have traveled in jets, a military plane, and a helicopter; in a police car, a firetruck, a cruise ship, and a steamer; on horseback; and on a sled pulled by dogs. "Has there been a saint in two thousand years of Christianity who has undertaken such a trip to five continents, attracted millions of people, provoked a spontaneous evangelization, and brought out, in front of astonished pastors, crowds of people -- many of whom usually don't bother with churches?" wrote Guy Gaucher, bishop emeritus of Bayeux and Lisieux. In these pages you will read testimonies about the Little Flower's intervention in the lives of:
You will come to understand the two reasons why the proclamation of St. Thérèse as Doctor of the Church was revolutionary. Moreover, you will see how "the little Doctor" lived one of the most faithfully and universally apostolic lives in the history of the Church and became God's "spokesperson" even while living a secluded existence. All throughout this exciting book, Gaucher unveils Thérèse's spiritual insights, which have been compared to those of St. Thomas Aquinas.
