Sharon asked me about the Chaplet of St. Therese in a comment on another post, so here’s a little bit about it.
The St. Therese Chaplet consists of 1 large bead, on which one recites the opening prayer: “St. Thérèse of the Infant Jesus, Patroness of Missions, pray for us!”
On the 24 smaller beads, which represent a bead for each year of St. Therese’s life, one recites a “Glory be…”
It is a beautiful prayer, and one which I pray regularly! I finish with a novena prayer to St. Therese:
O Little Thérèse of the Child Jesus,
please pick for me a rose
from the heavenly gardens
and send it to me as a message of love.
O Little Flower of Jesus,
ask God today to grant the favours
I now place with confidence in your hands…
(Make your request here…)
St. Thérèse,
help me to always believe as you did,
in God’s great love for me,
so that I might imitate
your “Little Way” each day.
Amen
The above picture is of a Chaplet you can buy from Cenacle, at a very reasonable price. Later I will post a picture of my own Chaplet

Oh thank you very much……has been a truly ‘pants’ day and I’m feeling quite lifted at the thought of being able to use this…
blessings and looking forward to seeing the piccie of your chaplet later.
love

I love St. Therese, but have never had her chaplet! I need to get one of these. Thanks for sharing this.

Ahhh – very illuminating! A lady at my last retreat was talking about that chaplet and was amazed I had never heard of it! (oh the ignorance of the convert….) It is a lovely prayer – thank you for sharing – and thank you Sharon for asking about it.
