The Little Ones, the Poor and the Suffering

Fountain of Elias: The Little Way
Our Holy Father recently spoke of the Little Way of the Little Flower and recommends reading The Story of a Soul.
"Little Therese", the Pope continued, "never failed to help the most simple souls, the little ones, the poor and the suffering who prayed to her, but also illuminated all the Church with her profound spiritual doctrine, to the point that the Venerable John Paul II, in 1997, granted her the title of Doctor of the Church ... and described her as an 'expert in scientia amoris'. Therese expressed this science, in which all the truth of the faith is revealed in love, in her autobiography 'The Story of a Soul', published a year after her death"...
The Pope's entire catechesis on the Little Way is HERE.
