"Works of mercy were the very foundation on which Louis and Zelie Martin built their life." See the National Catholic Register interview with the vice-postulator, Fr. Antonio Sangalli, O.C.D.,, who speaks sensitively about their canonization, the miracle of little Carmen's healing, and the significance of their lives for us.

"Under the Veil of the Virgin: The Gradually Developing Relationship of Saint Therese of the Child Jesus and the Holy Face to the Blessed Virgin Mary," by Fr. Christopher Armstrong, is a marvelous work about St. Therese's relationship with Mary, newly published online and drawing on sources rearely published in English. The opening chapters tell of Louis and Zelie's devotion to Mary and of the Marian atmosphere in which they raised their daughters. See some details..
On Monday, Jul. 13th, at 7:00 pm EST , I had the pleasure of talking with host Frances Harry about "The Canonization of Louis and Zelie Martin" on "Carmelite Conversations," a program of Radio Maria. I talked about the history of their cause, the process of canonization, and the healings of Pietro Schiliro (their beatification miracle) and Carmen Perez Pons (their canonization miracle).Please listen at http://radiomaria.us/july-13-2015/ Thank you.
