Sts. Louis & Zelie Martin: The Parents of St. Thérèse

“God gave me parents more suited for heaven than this earth.”
—St. Thérèse

In this year dedicated to celebrating the 150th anniversary of the birth of St. Thérèse, we will learn about the lives of the man and woman who raised and formed her and explore their relevance for people today.

Special Guest Speaker Br. Vladimir Guadalupe, OCD

Br. Vladimir Guadalupe of Sts. Louis & Zélie was born in Oceanside, CA.  Most of his family lives near Austin, TX, but he came to San Antonio for college, earning a degree in social work from Our Lady of the Lake University. It was while studying there that he first visited the Basilica and met the Friars. Br. Vladimir is currently studying theology at St. John's Seminary in Brighton, Massachusetts.
