"Be Missionaries of God's Mercy," Teresa of Avila and Therese of Lisieux on God's mercy, by Dr. Keith Egan.

On the feast of Saint Teresa of Avila (which was Therese's feast day during her lifetime), I recommend "Be Missionaries of God's Mercy - A Carmelite Challenge," a brief article by Dr. Keith Egan about the role of mercy in the Carmelite tradition as typified by its two female Doctors of the Church, Teresa of Avila and Therese of Lisieux.  This article appeared in the summer/fall 2014 issue of Carmelite Review.  May the whole Christian family, including the Carmelite family, be missionaries of mercy!
