Saint Thérèse of the Child Jesus and the Holy Face, one of our primary patronesses, reminds us that the peak of the Catholic intellectual tradition always points to the heavens. We take to heart her intimation that we are all pilgrims in this world, making our way to our true home — indeed, each of us is a “sojourner” on the earth (Psalm 119:19). Following Saint Thérèse, the cultivation of divine wisdom and the attainment of eternal Easter after death directs and informs all our earthly endeavors.
