Happy feast of #StTeresaofAvila! Did you know that along with St Catherine of Siena, St Teresa was the first female Doctor of the Church?

St. Teresa of Avila. These were my mother’s favorite quotes, “Find God in everything, even in the stewpots. You can pray even when you do the dishes.” “May God protect me from gloomy saints.” #StTeresaofAvila Be joyful today and see God journeying with you.
