The Extraordinary Parents of St. Therese of Lisieux
St. Therese famously said, "God gave me a Father and Mother more worthy of Heaven than of Earth."
In October, 2015, Louis and Zelie Martin were the first married couple to be canonized together.
When they met, fell in love, and married in 1858, their lives seemed pretty ordinary. They worked hard-Louis was a watchmaker, Zelie established her own business making Pont d'Alencon lace-and went on to have nine children. Five survived, all of whom became nuns and one of whom is now known as St. Therese of Lisieux, perhaps the most popular saint in recent history.
Through stories, chatty domestic insights from Zelie's correspondence, and running commentary on their faith and family, The Extraordinary Parents of St. Therese of Lisieux shows in vivid detail how Louis and Zelie created a joyful Catholic home for their family while coping with the demands of business and the daily stresses of ordinary life with their lively children.
St. Therese "Love Filled My Heart" Candle
Beautify your home with this lovely candle featuring a quote by St. Therese of Lisieux, speaking to her relationship with Our Lord: "Love filled my heart. I forgot myself, and henceforth I was happy." Her insight reminds us not only of the power of God's love, but also of the joy that we can find in letting go of our worries, and focusing on the Lord. Makes a lovely gift for wedding, anniversary, or any occasion.
