In this homily honoring St. Thérèse of Lisieux, we’re reminded that holiness isn’t found in great achievements but in great love. The “Little Flower” shows us that the path to sanctity begins in small, daily acts of surrender. As we follow the Little Way, we learn that excuses and attachments fade when our hearts are rooted in Jesus alone, who gives our lives meaning beyond all earthly things.

This week’s homily challenges us to reflect on what it truly means to be “poor.” Scripture presents poverty in two ways: material poverty, seen in those who struggle for basic needs, and spiritual poverty, revealed in Christ’s humility. Though Jesus was rich, He became poor for our sake, emptying Himself to give us eternal riches in heaven. To know Him personally—not just know about Him—is the greatest treasure.
