The Story of a Family: The Home of St. Therese of Lisieux
- Tells the true story of St. Thérèse’s parents and sisters
- Highlights Louis and Zélie Martin’s canonized sainthood
- Explores the joys and sufferings of a devout Catholic family
- Offers inspiration for Catholic parents and families today
- Ideal for those seeking to live the Faith in everyday family life
Meet the remarkable Martin family—the holy soil from which the “Little Flower,” St. Thérèse of Lisieux, blossomed.
In Story of a Soul, Thérèse herself credits her family for the spiritual foundation that shaped her. This deeply moving book traces the lives of her parents, Saints Louis and Zélie Martin—canonized as a couple—and her sister Léonie, whose own cause for beatification is underway. Through their story, readers encounter a household rooted in deep Catholic devotion, generous love, and heroic endurance.
The Martins knew suffering: the loss of four children, the trials of running a family business, and Zélie’s death from cancer. Yet their abiding love for one another and for Christ carried them through every hardship.
They lived the Faith in both the great tragedies and the everyday tasks—sanctifying the home through ordinary acts of charity, patience, and fidelity.
This inspiring account of a holy husband, wife, and their five surviving daughters offers a moving portrait of Catholic family life. Whether you're raising children, facing hardship, or striving to grow in holiness, the Martin family shows that sanctity begins at home—with love.
