Dear friends, after journeying through Advent with Thérèse of the Child Jesus, we now begin this Lenten retreat with the same Thérèse—Thérèse of the Holy Face—drawing close to her in the light of the Paschal mystery. This year, as we celebrate the centenary of her canonization (May 17) in the Jubilee Year 2025, let us joyfully respond to Pope Francis’s invitation to be pilgrims of hope.
