✨ Memorial of Saints Louis and Zélie Martin
Feast Day: July 12
❤️ Feast of Saints Louis & Zélie Martin
🕊️ First married couple canonized together, parents of St. Thérèse of Lisieux
Today we honor the loving & holy couple who built a “domestic church” rooted in faith, sacrifice, and family. Their union orchestrated by God’s grace, endured suffering, loss, and deep joy. Yet they remained steadfast, nurturing five daughters, four of whom entered religious life, including St. Thérèse, the Little Flower.
🌿 “It would be impossible for me to live apart from you.”
May their love inspire our marriages and families to mirror holy devotion and mutual self-giving.
🙏 Saints Louis and Zélie, intercede for all spouses, parents, and families, help us to live everyday virtues with courage, tenderness, and faith.
