Teresa No "Little Flower" (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781807231217)

This is a story of faith, vocation, and a life guided by God's hand. Written with sincerity, humility, and quiet grace, it tells of a journey that begins in religious life and unfolds in unexpected and richly blessed ways, with exploration, joy, and a love for life at its heart.

Throughout her life, Teresa's relationship with God has remained at the centre of everything she has done. Whether in quiet reflection, acts of kindness toward neighbours, or in the wonder of creation, her faith remains constant and alive. Her travels across the world reveal not only diverse cultures and landscapes, but also the presence of God in every place and every person she encounters.

As a nun, Teresa's work was varied and fulfilling. Yet when she felt God calling her along a different path, she stepped away from the convent with courage and trust, embracing a new vocation through marriage to Owen, continuing her faith in another form.

She also reflects on her childhood in Ireland within a large farming family nearly a century ago challenging at times, yet part of a more innocent and joyful era. Teresa's story reminds us that vocation is not a fixed path, but a lifelong journey of listening, trusting, and responding to God's call.

Teresa is an amazing person who has many incredible stories to share. We have very fond memories from our childhood of her time in Tipperary, where she was truly like an honorary grandmother to us. She is also very well-travelled, and now we enjoy discussing and comparing our experiences of the places we've visited.
