Patron of: those in religious orders, lacemakers, the sick, Spain
St. Teresa of Avila, Carmelite reformer and first female Doctor of the Church is one of the most beloved women of the Catholic Church. Born in 16th century Spain, Teresa lived a life of humor, prayer and mission as she worked towards reform. Her book, "The Interior Castle" is still widely read today, as St. Teresa is considered one of the great contemplative mystics of the Church.

Can God have a sense of humor? Does having faith mean being serious all the time (hint: definitely not!). St. Teresa of Avila is also a great Saint to teach children about the different ways we can pray. A fantastic introductory Saint for contemplative prayer!

The Shining Light dolls are great for everyone. Our daughter is grown with children of her own, and she made her Confirmation a long time ago. I surprised her with the St. Teresa of Avila doll, which was the saint she chose for her Confirmation back then. She loves the doll, and has it on her desk. :)
