The Little Way of Holiness 

Join us on a cherished pilgrimage through France tracing the life of Saint Thérèse of Lisieux, the "Little Flower," whose spirituality has inspired millions. Our journey begins in Lisieux, visiting the Basilica and Carmelite Monastery whereérèse lived and prayed.

 

In Alençon, we explore her birthplace and the family home of Saints Louis and Zélie Martin. We then travel to Chartres to reflect on the Cathedral of Notre-Dame and the family's deep faith.

 

Finally, in Paris, we visit iconic sites like Notre-Dame Cathedral and the of the Miraculous Medal, walking in the footsteps of beloved saints and learning from their devotion God.
