SAINT TERESA OF JESUS OF THE ANDES: Heart of innumerable Glories
Biographical Sketch of Saint Teresa of Jesus of the Andes
Saint Teresa of Jesus of the Andes was born in Santiago, Chile, on July 13, 1900. Her father Miguel Fernández and her mother, Lucía Solar de Fernández were good Catholic parents. The name that they gave to their beloved daughter was Juanita Fernández Solar (St. Teresa of Jesus of the Andes). St. Teresa of Jesus was baptized at Santiago's Parish Church of Saint Anne on the vigil of the feast of Our Lady of Mount Carmel.
At age 6, Jesus appeared as a small boy to St. Teresa of Jesus while she was playing in the family yard. Jesus, pretending to be a new boy in the neighborhood, began to participate in the childhood games that St. Teresa of Jesus was playing. It was during one of His visits that the Child King spoke of His desire that she be introduced to His Mother. It was from that time onward that Juanita began to experience ecstasies. On more than one occasion, Our Holy Mother revealed to her the wonders of her Immaculate Heart, and gave her the understanding that the Child King resided in her heart in a special way. She did this in preparation for when Juanita was to receive the Eucharist for the first time. Juanita’s heart became ignited with Divine Love and also with an unquenchable desire that the Child King dwell in her heart in the same way that He resided in His Mother’s Heart. Upon receiving her First Holy Communion, the Child King spoke to her from her heart for the first time. When He spoke He related to her that the great desire of her heart, which was for Himself to dwell in her heart like His Mother’s Heart, was granted to her. The Child King also granted her a special gift of being able to communicate directly to the Child King in her Heart. From that time onward, Juanita spent much time separated from the world and in communication with the Child King and His Mother. In ecstasy Our Precious Mother would appear to her with the Child King in Her Heart also, and this is something they now shared together in common. Juanita’s joy on earth was complete. Our Holy Mother then instructed her on how to speak to Jesus in her heart, and She also spoke to her about what to do, and what not to do to protect this treasure in Her Heart. Our Holy Mother explained to her that the gift of Jesus in her heart will bring about wondrous consequences in the next life if she was very good to the Child King in Her Heart.
After her first Communion, St. Teresa of Jesus received Holy Communion every day. Her parents enrolled her in a Catholic School run by the Sisters of the Sacred Heart. Here is where she received good Catholic teaching that became the foundation for her to become St. Teresa of Jesus of the Andes with her Heart of Innumerable Glories.
St. Teresa of Jesus's outward appearance differed little from the lives of other girls her age. Those who knew her described her as being friendly and pleasing, with a happy disposition. Though she did well in her studies, she always made time for Jesus and His Mother, and was drawn to spend time with them. Repeatedly she would slip away quietly to a nearby chapel to pray. In those moments she exchanged heartfelt sentiments of love and affection with them. Jesus had so deeply captured Juanita’s heart that she made a vow of perfect virginity when she was fifteen. In a letter to her sister Rebecca she described her ecstatic joy for this great gift of God: “I have been caught by the Divine Fisherman in the net of His Love.”
When eighteen, Juanita entered religious life the Carmel of Los Andes, Chile, and was given the name Sister Teresa of Jesus in honor of the great Carmelite saint of Ávila. Overcome by the grace of being called to the religious life she wrote to a friend, “What does God see in us that makes Him love us to the point of wanting us to be His friends, and the brides of His Heart.” Almost all her letters from Carmel are signed with the name Teresa, to which she generally adds the word Carmelite. However in a letter written to her mother, she referred to herself as Teresita. On May 1919 she wrote: “I am getting ready for my Pentecost retreat. Won’t you pray that your Teresita may be madly consumed by His Love.”
Sister Teresa of Jesus lived in the Monastery of Los Andes only eleven months, wore the habit of her Carmelite order less than five, and then she was stricken with typhus. In danger of death, she was permitted to make her religious vows and thus died as a professed Carmelite Sister.
Immediately after her death in 1920, extraordinary things begun to happen. People were moved by God to see in this young Chilean girl a model of perfect holiness. She was acclaimed the saint closest to the heart of the people of Chile, and many found her to be a wonderful friend and intercessor before God. The fame of her holiness grew as miracles abound. As a result, she was beatified on April 3, 1987, in Santiago, and canonized in Rome by the same Pope on March 21, 1993. On that occasion, Pope John Paul II made the proposal that she be the model for young persons today. He had much devotion and admiration for her because she remained strong in her faith, and was in every way a perfect example for people of her age to follow. Up to the present day she is a light shining bright for young people. If any young person is confused because of what they are facing in regard to pressures of today, they have always before them someone that they can look up to, draw strength from, and go to for help.

Saint Teresa of Jesus’s Heart of Innumerable Glories, is Jesus's gift to the youth of today, and also to everyone. She is the example set before us all to follow during a time when moral decline is at its worst; Jesus was pleased to preserve in her modesty and an extra ordinary gift of the Holy Spirit.

Please give Him a hug and kiss for me.” Then proceed to open your heart to her; and then ask her for her help, and whatever you need.
Healing Meditation: On the Chapel Grounds
with St. Teresa of Jesus and the Child King
Imagine yourself on this particular day visiting the famous shrine to St. Teresa of Jesus of the Andes’s Heart of Innumerable Glories. And, on this particular day there happens to be just a few other visitors visiting the chapel. Behind the main church is a large, attractive, spacious area that is called “the chapel grounds.” As you gaze upon it, the thought that comes to mind is: “there is no other place on earth I’d would rather be; this place is magnificent.” And Before you there is a luxurious lawn with lush green grass that seemingly goes on for miles interspersed with towering pines and maples. There is a pleasant breeze, blue sky, beautifully singing birds, and there doesn’t seem to be one person anywhere; and it is profoundly quiet. The walkway in front of you is made of inlaid bricks, meanders its way to a bench that seems to be calling out to you to come near, to sit and repose. After you stretch out on the bench, you look up and find yourself in full view of a very large statue of St. Teresa of Jesus of the Andes with Her Heart of Innumerable Glories. Her large Heart is displayed beautifully in front of her with a spray of flames on top, and her arms on either sided are opened wide in a posture of welcoming you. While pulling your rosary out of your coat pocket to pray, you happen to observe a small breeze wisping some fallen leaves into a miniature whirlpool which hastens down the walkway. And in looking down the walkway you see a woman that looks like St. Teresa of Jesus of the Andes walking toward you. She is dressed in a full length, brown Carmelite robe with a white veil that is very elegant. She has a delightful expression on her face of someone who appears to be familiar with you, and wants to speak with you. When she arrives she asks if the place next to you on the bench has been taken, and after taking the vacant space, she shows that she is feeling at home with you, and puts her left arm around you. Her beautiful facial features and warm smile reveals her identity, and excitedly you realize that it is St. Teresa of Jesus, who has put her arm around you. She is aware that you are in need of a friend, and she knows that you are feeling lonely, downcast, and experiencing agitation concerning many things. In a loving way she says, “I am sorry that you are experiencing anguish and sorrow concerning some troubles that you are having.” Then in a gentile, sympathetic voice she asks: “Would you like to say something about what is making you feel this way?” As you begin to speak, you are surprised at the ease with which you are able to express what is burdening you. With Saint Teresa of Jesus’s help you are able to describe to her your fears, anxieties, loneliness, grief, rejection, and other hurts to the last detail. In reply she gives you a sweet smile indicating that she is very pleased with you for having shared this part of yourself with her.
Saint Teresa in reply shares some everyday stories about community life with the sisters at the Monastery that are consoling, and they also make you smile. Then she asks you if you would like to tell the Child King everything that you spoken to her about. Mystified because He appears to be no where in sight, you remain silent. Then St. Teresa of Jesus extends her right hand in the direction of the large statue of her Heart of Innumerable Glories. Large shafts of beautiful red and blue light begin to appear at the heart of the statue, and stream downward to fall just in front of you. Then suddenly the Child King appears at the top of the glorious streams of light. And, then He slides down the beams of light to land in front of you. And, upon seeing you, He smiles, and then leaps up on your lap.
You feel his warmth as he rests on your lap, and looks at you with soft, very pleasing, blue eyes. Saint Teresa of Jesus then says, “Repeat everything you said to me to the Child King.” Following her advice, you begin slowly and carefully, pouring out to Him of everything that you had spoken about to Saint Teresa of Jesus.
After hearing the litany of your troubles, the Child King’s engaging and delightful eyes, become eyes of approval. In His presence you begin to experience the warmth of His Beautiful Love inside of you. Then he says, “I know all of this about you, and I want you to know that I was with you during it all, and that I loved you in the midst of everything that has happened to you.” Then he says, “I want you to know that my love for you is immeasurable.”
Then again he explains that he knows everything, including the things that are hidden and buried deep inside of you. And, then he continues by saying, “My dear one, I was with you then, and I am with you now, and always. I love you, and I want you to experience My Healing Love profoundly within your heart.” Moved by this request you respond, “Yes Jesus, I would like that.”
Then,” he says, “surrender everything to me.” “Give me everything that makes you, fearful, ashamed, alone, weary, and rejected. Hand over to me everything you spoken to me about: your sorrows, your anxieties, your doubts, and all the things that make you sad, and in its place I want to give you My love, light, joy, and My peace. Give me the poor image that you have of yourself and others, and in return I will give you a new way of seeing, that you may love yourself and others with My Love. Emotionally moved by the Child King’s words and experiencing His profound Healing Love, you hand everything that the Child King is asking for to Him, and letting His Healing Love touch every hurt, negative feeling, and sorrow. In response to His Healing Love you become overwhelmed, and tears begin to flow amidst sobbing. St. Teresa of Jesus gives you her support with an embrace. Remaining in His love you continue to let the warmth of the Child King’s Love to seep into the deepest part of yourself, touching every fear, every anxiety, and every area that is broken.
Then he says, “You are very special to Me and I give myself to you completely.” Resting in silence with St. Teresa of Jesus you let His words, and the power of His healing love to procure the effects of His love in every part of your heart, spirit, mind, and body. In the midst of your tears you show the Child King how grateful you are by embracing Him. He returns your embrace and says, “I love you my child.” “I want you to go to My Mother’s Immaculate Heart where She will be waiting for you. Her heart is where you must go now, it is now your new home and She will be your new companion. In giving your heart to Her She will fill it with Her Love and in her Heart you will also receive mine as well.” “I want you to remain with Me forever in My Mother’s Heart.”
Saint Teresa of Jesus gives you a beautiful smile and then says: “It’s time to go.” You give the Child King another embrace, and then reluctantly you hand Him over to St. Teresa of Jesus. She smiles and then gives you an embrace, and then she walks away with the Child King hand in hand.
Healing MEDITATION:
Finding Rest in the Heart of Saint Teresa of Jesus
of the Andes’s Heart of Innumerable Glories
The Heart of Saint Teresa of Jesus of the Andes’s Heart of Innumerable Glories has no doors: it’s a walk-in from every direction. There are no lines of people, and no noise from a busy world. When you arrive, even unexpectedly, you find that you are the only one here.
Inside the Heart of Saint Teresa of Jesus of the Andes’s Heart of Innumerable Glories you can clearly see that there is plenty of room. In addition to it being exhilarating to be in Saint Teresa’s heart, the ambiance is exceptionally pleasing, soothing, and peaceful. However, feeling somewhat restless and tense upon arrival, the first thought that comes to mind is, where can I make myself comfortable. Upon scanning the room, what pops into view is a huge plush, soft, and white cushion near the sidewall of her heart. The outward appearance of the cushion itself, is a pleading invitation for you to move into that direction and to make yourself at home. Finding it hard to resist you cast yourself upon it. And you quickly discover that there is nothing about this cushion that will let you down. This cushion happens to be the most incredibly soft, and comfortable cushion you have ever experienced. Immediately you find yourself saying: “Wow, what is it about this cushion that makes me feel like: ‘all I want to do right now is relax.’” After stretching and making yourself comfortable with much delight, you catch sight of a beautifully scripted sign on the opposite wall that reads: LEARN FROM ME AND YOU WILL FIND REST (Mt 11:29). “How does Saint Teresa of Jesus know, that the thing I need most right now is rest and relaxation?”
Then without understanding why, every sense of the word “relaxation” begins to seep into your body—one muscle at a time—while you are reposing on the white cushion that has now formed itself around you. Every bone, every tense muscle, and nerve is inclining itself toward being completely at ease and serene. Every tension, and every negative feeling is wanting to be stress free, and depart from your mind and body—no deadlines, no worries to resolve, and no tasks to undertake. The only thing to do is relax.
While you are completely committed to your repose, you begin to experience the presence of the Child King; and then suddenly He is very near. Then the ultimately satisfying cushion that is wrapped around you, is now beginning to feel like the Child King’s loving arms. Realizing this with much delight, you begin to experience the force of His peace and tranquility flowing from His loving arms. And then you begin to let it seep into every tense nerve, and area of restless anxiety. And while you are doing this, you are practicing letting the stress go. Letting them depart only to relax more and more. As these feelings leave one after the other, the power of the Child King replaces them with His peace, tranquility and restfulness. Gradually you are coming to the place where you are completely at ease and resting the utmost rest. Like a child at rest in the arms of his loving father, you are now at rest in the strength, peaceful tranquility of the arms of the Child King. Then slowly, you begin experiencing the Child King’s Love with a gentile burning sensation in your heart.
This experience is so satisfying, that a strong desire to part with every remaining thread of tension emerges. And after letting it all go, the only thing that remains is to free-fall into the Love of the Child King. In your state of perfect rest and resignation, the Child King begins to fill you with His Love. All the while that you are being overwhelmed by this beautiful gift, you allow His affirming and healing love to seep into the very center of your being and every fiber of your body, mind and soul. If a worry or a care finds its way in, you say to yourself, “It’s OK to leave the pressing things in my life unfinished, this is far more important right now.” Rest, become at ease, and relax, continue to let every tension, anxiety, fear, self-condemnation, and other negative feelings go. And, letting His marvelous Love to take their place. This experience of Jesus is so powerfully affirming that you say to yourself, “The Child King loves me. How wonderful. Oh thank you my Jesus.”
While continuing to receive His healing love and letting go of every possible negative tension, you sense that your stay has now come to an end. Slowly you open your eyes, and to your surprise you see only doors with exit signs near them in every direction. Responsibilities are making themselves felt once again but you are not leaving anything you have received behind; you are taking the joy of the peace, tranquility, and the Love of the Child King with you. And, after making a heartfelt prayer of love and thank you to Saint Teresa of Jesus for letting you have use of her Heart of Innumerable Glories, you give the Child King an embrace. As you are walking out of the door of her heart, He requests that you need to visit Saint Teresa’s Heart very soon.

Saint Teresa of Jesus of the Andes’s Heart of Innumerable Glories is a Heart who has a very special purpose of imparting to us the Child King. Her heart is the place where we come to see Jesus. When you arrive at her heart the Child King is sitting on His throne adorned in all His majesty, power, and love. And what makes your rendezvous exceptional is that the Child King is anticipating your arrival. He was confident that you would come to see Him, and He knows all of the reasons why. You are very special to the Child King and as you approach, He is smiling and with arms outstretched to receive you. He says your name with much affection and the He says, “come here my child, come to me.” Upon hearing His beautiful voice, you experience the irresistibly force of His Love.

You look at the Child King in the Heart of St. Teresa of Jesus, and experience the force of His Love reaching out to you, and even wanting to embrace you. Then, suddenly you experience yourself in His presence with Him; You and the Child King. He speaks to you as though you are very familiar to Him; He actually knows everything about you. And you are pleased to discover that He loves you just the way that you are. Then He sweetly says your name again as though there was never a moment that He ceased to love you. And then He says: “At this moment I want to give you an experience of My Beautiful Love that will touch you in such a way that it will be very moving and meaningful to you. Now receive my Love and let it seep in to every part of yourself. Let it flow and experience my Love in your heart, mind, soul, and body. . . . . In response I ask you to give me every negative thing in your life. Your brokenness, your pain, sorrows, fears, anxieties, doubts, cares, and everything that weighs heavily upon you. . . . . . “Next In my Love I want to fortify you with special attributes of Myself and what I give you will be yours from this moment on . . . . First I give you my Eyes which are receptacles of My Light, so that you will see that My Beautiful Mother is also your Beautiful Mother. And also so that you may see the path that you must follow which is enriched by Her Graces that will lead you to Her Immaculate Heart. My Mother’s Heart is my place of residence, and it is in Her Heart that you will be with Me and live always in Her Love and in My love. Joining Me in My Mother’s Heart and in Our Love will be the beginning of a whole New Life for you.” “Next I want to give you My Heart which is the receptical of my Beautiful Love. And with all its Love I want you to Love my Mother because My Love is most pleasing to Her. It is my Love that will empower you to do everything that She wants you to do that will please Her. And now I give you My Hands which are receptacles of My Benevolence, and My Hands will become for you the Hands of My Mother’s Immaculate Heart. And with my Hands you will impart the sign of my favor so that the Cathedral of Love in my Mother’s Heart will prosper. With My Beautiful Hands you will be able to remove the burdens of My Mother’s children so that when they enter into Life in My Mother’s Heart, they will experience Life in great abundance. Their life’s path will have been made straight, and a perpetual year of My Favor will be their place of rest in my Mother’s Heart. Next, I now give you my feet which are receptacles of my vigor and strength. With them you will run out in front of my Mother’s Children and tell the world of the beautiful Life that has been prepared for them in My Mother’s heart. And then you will lead them to this New Life of Love, Joy, and Peace. Lastly along with these special attributes of Myself, I give you my whole self to you completely and entirely, I hold nothing back. And as I give Myself to you I give it with a double portion of my Love. Then the Child King says, “You are very special to Me, I want you to remain with Me at all times in the Cathedral of Love. Resting in silence, you continue to experience Jesus’s gentle love seeping into the deepest areas of yourself bringing a steadfast rejuvenation in the anointed warmth of His Healing Love. And as you continue to receive His Love, you reflect on the special attributes that Jesus has given you and tears of joy begin to well up in your eyes. And it is at this moment that the Child King says “I love you my child.” While remaining at rest in His love you begin to thank Jesus and St. Teresa of Jesus from the bottom of your heart and you tell them that you love them. Then with tears streaming from your eyes, you show them how grateful you are by embracing each of them. And then as you depart you turn to the Child King and say: Yes, my Child King I will do it.
To Receive an Experience of Jesus's Beautiful Love at St. Teresa of Jesus of the Andes’s Heart of Innumerable Glories
The time that Jesus appeared to St. Teresa of Jesus of the Andes at the age of 6, became for her an arrow of Divine Love that ignited her heart. This arrow of love in her heart was unquenchable and it provided fuel for the desire that the Child King dwell in Her Heart in the same way that Jesus dwelt in Our Holy Mother’s Immaculate Heart. This was shown to her in a vision when Our Precious Mother revealed her Immaculate Heart to her with Jesus dwelling within it in a very special way. Upon receiving her First Holy Communion, the Child King spoke to her from her heart for the first time. When He spoke He related to her that the great desire of her heart, which was for Himself to dwell in her heart like His Mother’s Heart, was granted. The Child King also granted her a special gift of being able to communicate directly to the Child King in Her Heart.

In giving us Himself in the midst of these wonderful gifts, He is embracing us and asking to be a full time resident in our Heart. Furthermore, in His embrace He is asking that we begin a Dialogue of Love with His Mother.

When the Child King found St. Teresa of Jesus’s Heart when she was six years old, He discovered a place from which He would restore in the hearts of all men and women confidence and faith in the Charity-Love of the Divine. In His great Love for us and St. Teresa of Jesus, He has filled her Heart of Innumerable Glories to overflowing with provisions; and he remains within with them with His Beautiful Love and His arms wide open to receive us. From St. Teresa’s Heart the Child King intends to pour down, in His disposition of Charity-Love, as a torrent His provisions on everyone. And, this torrent of benevolence and love resides in the hands of St. Teresa to dispense as she pleases, because She obtains everything that She asks for those who ask of Her. Those who seek from Her will find, because She desires to grant to us favors more than we desire to ask for them. And she, with her generous and compassionate Heart is resolute about the store of Her Heart being emptied upon everyone. From Her we can expect to obtain every material good, health, and maladies of the soul. The benevolence of this wonderful prodigy does not end here. After bestowing upon us Her overwhelming graciousness, St. Teresa intends to lead us to a Life in two beautiful Loves in the Immaculate Heart of Mary. In the Loves of Our Holy Mother and Jesus we will continue our friendship with St. Teresa of Jesus of the Andes, and Her Heart of Innumerable Glories and the Child King.
At her request the Child King will dismantle our every misery in our life and replace it with the Peace, Healing and Love that comes from the store of her heart. He will release upon us a powerful intervention that will deliver us of our every deficiency, and provide the miraculous. To receive a bestowal of favors from the Child King, Pray this prayer to St. Teresa of Jesus of the Andes:

Offering Sacrifices through St. Teresa of Jesus of the Andes’s
Heart of Innumerable Glories
We can never forget that Our Precious Mother’s Heart was united with Jesus’s Heart while He suffered the horrible torments of His Crucifixion. Jesus and Our Precious Mother’s Heart was so completely united that in a figurative sense Jesus was Her Heart. And every torment that Jesus endured, she endured in her heart. When Jesus’s heart was pierced, her heart was pierced as well. Therefore in the Cathedral of Love, when we offer sacrifices of Love we always offer them, not only to appease the sufferings of Jesus, but also to appease the sufferings of Our Precious Mother’s Heart of Sorrows. Therefore when offering a sacrifice, offer a sacrifice that you are able to perform that will also be a beautiful demonstration of your love for each of them.
A highly recommended way to offer a sacrifice of Love that will communicate the love and consolation that we want to convey to the hearts of Jesus and Mary is through St. Teresa of Jesus of the Andes’s Heart of Innumerable Glories. When we offer a sacrifice through her heart, she will make it perfect and magnify it with the love from her heart. This in turn will make our sacrifice of Love exceptionally consoling and provide more than the necessary reparation, which will facilitate a greater outpouring of sanctifying Grace through the Immaculate Heart of Mary. Along with your offering of sacrifice say this prayer:
Prayer to St. Teresa of Jesus of the Andes for Making a “Sacrifice of Love”
to obtain Graces through the Immaculate Heart of Mary
My dearest Saint Teresa of Jesus of the Andes,
I approach your Heart of Innumerable Glories,
for you to present my Sacrifice of Love to Jesus’s Most Sacred Heart,
and also to the Heart of Sorrows, of Our Precious Mother of the Cathedral of Love.
Make a special gift of my Sacrifice of Love,
by perfecting and magnifying my sacrifice with the compassionate love in your Heart,
that will bring much consolation and love to their Hearts most adored,
So that special graces may be bestowed through the Immaculate Heart of Mary. Amen.
