. . . I WILL LET EALL A SHOWER OE ROSES Like the stars that twinkle in the deep black skies, so glitter the precious gems of sanctified souls in the heavenly crown of St. Theresa of the Child Jesus. Though her ardent desire to go to the foreign missions was never fulfilled, her simple and holy life of prayer, sacrifice, and suffering gained for her the title, Patroness of all Missionaries. True to her promise: After my death I will let fall a shower of roses . . . , the Little Flower has assisted thousands of Priests, Sisters, and Brothers in far-flung mission fields. Evidence of this fact may be found in the two series of events which inspired Pius XI to designate this Cannelite Saint, the +Patroness of the Missions. The first was the missionaries' selection of St. Theresa as patron of their labors. As a result, between the years 1900 and 1925, there were 1,250,000 conversions in China, which was twice the number for the whole preceding century. s The second was the astounding experience of Bishop Charelbois of Northern Canada. It seems that after working among the Eskimos for five years, he had failed to gain a single convert. But one day, he sprinkled dust from the grave of the Little Flower upon a crowd assembled before him and all asked to be baptized. ' - i As Holy Mother Church celebrates the Silver Jubilee of the Proclamation of St. Theresa as Patron- ess of Missionaries during this scholastic year, the Graduates of SHA are happy to pay tribute to her whom Cod has given us as a saintly model of Spiritual Childhood. May we, like her, be real missionaries bynging many to the true knowledge and love of our dear Lord and of His Blessed Mother by the intense fervor of our own spiritual life.
