Bl. Louis and Zelie Martin, Parents of St. Therese


I was fortunate enough to discover in time that today is the feast of these two blessed parents of a saint. Their story is so endearing - in particular, I love the role model Zelie is for us as mothers, wives, teachers and businesswomen! Here is a little biography, although several wonderful books are available for a more complete story.

We ask the intercession of Louis and Zelie for all families, and especially for us parents!
