Rediscover the life of Louis and Zélie Martin in 9 days

On the occasion of their feast day on July 12, we are pleased to offer you the opportunity to spend 9 days in the company of Saints Louis and Zélie Martin, through a unique journey to follow for free on Hozana.

Do we really know these two spouses from Alençon, the first saints canonized together as a couple?

Before becoming the parents of Saint Thérèse of the Child Jesus, Louis and Zélie were a man and a woman deeply rooted in their time, facing joys, trials, work, illness, mourning, and the education of their children… Their lives testify that it is possible to seek holiness in the heart of everyday life.

For 9 days, receive each day:

  • a short episode (to listen to or read) recounting a significant moment in their lives 
  • a concrete way to draw inspiration from their example
  • a prayer to entrust your relationship, your family or your intentions.

Whether you already know Louis and Zélie or wish to discover them, this journey is a great opportunity to let yourself be touched by their very relevant testimony.

👉 Join the course for free today here !

We hope this retreat will help you rediscover all the beauty of an ordinary life lived with an extraordinary love of God.
