Therese a doctor for the third millennium [antikvár]

Time Aies and what lies imme-diately before our eyes quickly becomes the past changing into a vague me-mory, weake-ning slowly un-til it almost disappears. For this reason human beings seek to bolster their personal and collective memory to preserve, renew or transmit better the happenings and experien-ces that were of marked importance in the life of individuals or groups. The Order has just celebrated the déclaration of our sister Therese of Lisieux as Doctor of the Church. We would not want this event to fall into oblivion since it became a profound spiritual experience for the Church and our Tere-sian Carmelite family. It is our particular desire to share it with others so that they can join us in thanking the Lord, gi-ver of ail good gifts. Henee, the purpose of this publication. You will find in it a short account of the célébrations of the Doctorate in Rome, a selection of paragraphs from the Apostolic Letter "Divini Amoris Scientia" as well as the Circular Letter of the O.Carm and O.C.D. Superiors General "A Doctor for the Third Millennium"plus a series of photographs which capture images of the happiness, the enthusiasm and célébrations of these grace-filled days. I hope that reading and looking at these pages will recall for everyone the Doctorate of Therese of Lisieux and beco-me a spiritual experience nourishing faith, hope and love, strengthening our identity as her brothers and sisters.
