I will let fall a shower of roses.”
Pray this Novena for a special intention and St. Terese will send you a Rose
O Little Therese of the Child Jesus, please pick for me a rose from the heavenly garden and send it to me as a message of love. O Little Flower of Jesus, ask God to grant the favors now place with confidence in your hands (mention your special prayer request here.) St. Therese, help me to always believe as you did, in God’s great love for me, so that I may imitate your “Little Way” each day. Amen.
