Novena to Saints Louis and Zélie

A book published by Editions du Sanctuaire Louis et Zélie

In the history of saints, Louis and Zélie Martin are the first spouses to be canonized together, as a couple.

How were they able to cultivate a holiness that bore so much fruit in their family, in the Church, and in society? They simply chose to put God first in their married life, according to their motto: "God first." This is the origin of their holiness, in which they sought to live in harmony between their faith and their most ordinary life, every moment of their day in God's presence, with Him, and out of love for Him.

This novena proposes to bring us into their family and to have recourse to their intercession so that we too, at their school, can give more and more room to God in our lives.

Available for purchase at the Sanctuary Shop (50 rue Saint-Blaise, Alençon), priced at €6.
