Therese Martin was born at Alencon, France, in 1873. While still a young girl, she entered the Carmelite monastery at Lisieux and became known as Therese of the Child Jesus. She lived a life of humility, evangelical simplicity, and trust in God. By word and example, she taught these virtues to the novices of the community.
