Description
Terese of Liseux is one of the most popular saints in the church - even though she died relatively unknown at 24. Her 'Little Way' to Holiness was made famous through her autobiography The Story of a Soul. Her modesty and 'littleness' belies a spiritual powerhouse, at 14 she defied protocol and held onto the Pope's legs at an audience. We also look at the curious story of her relationship with Pope Francis and the gifts she sends him.
