St. Thérèse
When St. Therese was fifteen, she asked the Pope for permission to enter the Carmelite order, even though she was too young. When she began her postulancy she took the name “Sr. Therese of the Child Jesus and the Holy Face.”
She dedicated her life to simple acts, for she believed that it was the small daily tasks that made one holy. This became known as St. Therese’s “Little Way”. It is the way we are called to do ordinary things with extraordinary love.
St. Thérèse said:
“Love proves itself by deeds, so how am I to show my love?”
"Hoping against Hope” Evening Retreat
The season of Lent is upon us once again, and with it the invitation to a shared journey toward the new life of Easter. With Christ as our constant companion and guide, we make our common pilgrimage from ashes to alleluia.
In this Jubilee Year, we are especially encouraged by Pope Francis to make this Lenten journey as pilgrims of hope. The Holy Father asks us to consider this question: “Am I really on a journey, or am I standing still, not moving, either immobilized by fear and hopelessness or reluctant to move out of my comfort zone?” This is a striking challenge to consider.
On Wednesday March 26th at 7:00 pm the Myriam Family will lead a “Hoping against Hope” evening retreat at Little Flower.
Come join together for talk, song and adoration.
“Let us journey together in hope”

Welcome To Little Flower
Roman Catholic Church
Little Flower parish was established in 1930, and today serves almost 500 families from our beautiful church near Regina's core.
Our mission: Little Flower, as a faith community, reaches out to all in service, compassion and love to fulfill our mission of proclaiming the gospel daily in word and deed.
Our Patron, St. Thérèse
I will spend my heaven doing good on earth. I will let fall a shower of roses.
Thérèse Martin entered a Carmelite convent at age fifteen. As Sister Thérèse of the Child Jesus, she lived a hidden life. She was just 24 when she died of TB. The world came to know her through her autobiography, The Story of a Soul.
She described her life as “a little way of spiritual childhood.” She lived each day with unshakable confidence in God’s love. What matters in life is “not great deeds, but great love.”
“My mission — to make God loved — will begin after my death,” she said. “I will spend my heaven doing good on earth. I will let fall a shower of roses.”
This is the reason St.Thérèse’s emblem is a crucifix covered with a profusion of roses. The celebration of her Feast Day is October 1.
Our Stained Glass Windows
The windows in Little Flower church were designed and manufactured by Rault Freres, of Rennes, France, and installed by Burns Hanley Co. Ltd. of Regina.
