Feast day, 1 October: Little Way Week is inspired by St Thérèse of Lisieux, patron of mission. Aged seven, Thérèse joined The Society of the Holy Childhood, known to us now as Mission Together. It was as a member of the Holy Childhood that Thérèse grew in faith and admiration for the work of the missionaries. Our five fact assembly teaches children about St Thérèse and encourages them to follow her ‘Little Way’.
