St. Therese of Lisieux entered Carmel at 15 and became known for doing small acts with great love. Her spirituality, often called the Little Way, emphasizes complete trust in God and faithfulness in ordinary duties. She died in 1897 at age 24, was later canonized, named patron of the missions in 1927, patron of France in 1944, and declared the 33rd Doctor of the Church in 1997.
