50 years ago Teresa became the
first female to be proclaimed a
Doctor of the Church. In Christian Spirituality her powerful
insight to the inner life
is well known and fast
becoming appealing to younger
generations.

A disciple of Teresa whom she
convinced to remain within the
Carmelite Order by joining her
reform. More systematic in his
approach to Christian
spirituality – John is a
considered master of the inner
journey of transformation and
intimacy with God.

More of a contemporary and a
considered Patroness of Young
people in modern times. She in
her “little way” makes appealing
the life journey of prayer as an
interpreter of her fellow
Carmelite Doctors of the
Church.
