My friend Erika Ahern has written a beautiful article about Blessed Louis and Zelie Martin for Columbia Magazine. She writes:
Blessed Louis and Zelie Martin provide a rare and compelling witness to
married couples today. Together, they brought nine children into the
world, four who died in infancy and five who entered religious life.
Through all their struggles and triumphs, Louis and Zelie’s heroic
witness to divine providence and to the power of a marriage lived in
fidelity offers profound insights into how a man and woman can reach
holiness together.
The whole article is well worth reading: The World is Not Home.
