Please note that this month's conference will look at how the Martin family's many experiences of sickness strengthened their life of faith and prayer, and also at a few of the healings attributed to the intercession of Blessed Louis and Zelie Martin and of St. Therese of Lisieux.  May learning about this aspect of their life of faith help us to accept our own illnesses and the illnesses of those we love.  Please come, and pray in the presence of the reliquary of this holy family or your own healing and the healing of your beloved family members and friends.
