October 1, 2025: the reliquary of St. Therese, newly arrived in the United States, comes to the National Shrine of the Little Flower in Royal Oak, Michigan
In this 53-second video, watch the arrival of the reliquary of St. Therese of Lisieux at the first stop on its tour of the United States, the National Shrine of the Little Flower in Royal Oak, Michigan.
For an in-depth story about the visit, read "Relics of St. Therese of Lisieux begin U.S. Tour at Basilica Named in Her Honor" by Martin Barillas for the Catholic News Agency.
The relics will be at the Shrine until Wednesday, October 8. For the full itinerary of the pilgrimage of the relics in the United States, which will end on December 8, please visit https://stthereseusa2025.com/
A superb way to
- prepare to get the most from the chance to pray in the presence of the relics;
- to follow up on the graces of your visit;
- or, if you cannot go to one of the sites to pray in person, to do so virtually, is to
Watch "In Search of the Little Flower: The Full Life Story of Saint Therese of Lisieux," a documentary produced by Sancta Familia Media in 2019 for the first visit of the relics to Scotland. I had the privilege of advising on this documentary, and I recommend it.
