Young Therese Martin didn’t begin her life as a saint - she was simply a little girl who loved God and her parents. But in responding to God’s call in her ‘little way,’ she showed a clear path to holiness that we can hope to follow. Her obedience, charity, and abandonment to God’s will, make Therese of Lisieux one of the Church’s most beloved saints.
This series contains moments of fear and intensity, including raised voices and arguments. The death of a parent from disease is depicted. A young character struggles with losing her siblings to religious life. The series ends with an implied death from disease.
