Inspiration for Catholic married couples on their journey to sainthood
Our holy role-models for July are perhaps the best-loved married saint couple behind Sts. Mary and Joseph. But how well do you really know Sts. Louis and Zélie Martin, parents of St. Thérèse of Lisieux?
Our challenge for July is to pray a novena to St. Anne, grandmother of Jesus. She and her husband, S. Joachim, taught the Blessed Virgin Mary to be the perfect wife and mother she was.
Our Holy Role-Model for June is St. Thomas More: apologist, advisor to the king, martyr… and also devoted husband and father.
Our holy role-model for April is St. Rita of Cascia, patron saint of abused wives and heartbroken women. There is tragedy in her story, but so much beauty and hope, too.
The first marital vow is to love our spouse freely. How free are you, really? What is enslaving your heart and holding you back from real love?
Our April marriage challenge: A novena to St. Gianna Molla, patron saint of mothers and unborn children.
Our Holy Role-Model for February: Bl. Barbe Acarie, who helped found the Carmelite order of nuns in France and joined that order after her husband’s death.
