Chaplet of St. Therese

History:
Also known as the Little Flower Rosary.  Many persons have received special graces by reciting this chaplet during a period of 9 to 24 days.  Some even speak of a (spiritual) rose granted by St. Therese to the aficionados.
The 24 beads are in honour of the Blessed Trinity in thanksgiving for giving the world the Little Saint who lived only 24 years.
