Product Description:
The visit of the Relics of St Therese of Lisieux to Ireland during the summer of 2001 sparked the biggest mass movement of people ever witnessed in that country. It was a social as well as a religious event, drawing over 75% of the population its venues. It was a People's Movement, a spontaneous and joyful response that few could have anticipated, something that touched a deep chord of spirituality in the Irish people. This book is a treasure-house of memories and anecdotes, beautifully illustrated with over 100 color photographs that bring to life the joy and wonder of this once-in-a-lifetime visit. A colourful book with photographs on every page, some really superb, capturing moments of veneration, anticipation, laughter, sorrow, joy, uncertainty - a whole gamut of emotions, in fact.''--The Irish Times.
