In this Year of St. Joseph, the Universal Church is taking the opportunity to study this saint in more depth. Friendship with St. Joseph is a well-established tradition of the Discalced Carmelite order, beginning with St. Teresa of Jesus.

We are excited to unveil 2021’s Little Flower Fiesta Medal designed by San Antonio native Alyssa Trujillo. This is our second year partnering with Alyssa to produce our Fiesta medals after she won 2020's design contest.

This beautiful stained glass window of the Child Jesus cannot be found by the average visitor to the Basilica today. This is a relic of our past which currently resides in storage.

First-class relics are contained within a ring on the left hand of the statue of Thérèse in the tomb chapel of the Basilica of the Little Flower.
