2023 is the 150th anniversary of the birth of St. Thérèse!

Thérèse of Lisieux has been inserted into the 2022/2023 calendar of anniversaries to which UNESCO will join on the occasion of the 150th anniversary of the birth of St. Thérèse (1873-2023).

To commemorate this anniversary and the special recognition which our Little Flower has garnered, Little Flower Basilica and the Discalced Carmelite Friars have several special programs planned throughout 2023.

Join us on Thérèse's birthday, January 2, at 6pm for the opening Mass of this special year with Bishop Gary Janak!

May St. Thérèse of Lisieux open paths to Christ through the values that UNESCO wants to highlight: culture, science, and education.
