Monthly days of prayer in the presence of the relics of Blessed Louis and Zelie Martin and St. Therese of Lisieux at the Carmelite Monastery in Philadelphia continue through Sunday, October 5, 2014
UPDATE: the series of monthly days of prayer in the presence of the reliquary of Blessed Louis and Zelie Martin and of St. Therese at the Carmelite Monastery in Philadelphia will end on Sunday, October 5, 2014, with the conference "A Map of St. Therese's Way of Confidence and Love." The reliquary will not be in Philadelphia on the first Sunday of November. The Magnificat Foundation has announced its third Magnificat Day of Faith for Saturday, November 1, 2014, in Memphis, Tennessee. The relics will be venerated in Memphis—please tell your friends in the South-- so the day of prayer announced for Sunday, November 2, 2014, with the conference "The Martin Family and the Communion of Saints: Grief, Healing, and Eternal Life" in Philadelphia will not take place. We apologize for disappointing you.
See more about the Magnificat Day of Faith in Memphis on November 1, 2014.
To attend a day of prayer at the Philadelphia Carmel, act now. There are four days left: on the first Sundays of July, August, September, and October. Please come to the next day on Sunday, July 6, 2014, when the topic of the conference will be "The Eucharist as the source and summit of the spirituality of the Martin family." For other chances to pray in the presence of the reliquary in Philadelphia after October 5, 2014, please stay tuned.
An updated flyer is below. You may download the flyer as a PDF or as a jpeg.

The first photo of the reliquary of St. Therese of Lisieux and her parents, Blessed Zelie and Louis Martin, after it was installed at the Carmelite Monastery in Philadelphia
The new "family reliquary," containing relics of St. Therese of Lisieux and of her parents, Blessed Louis and Zelie Martin, in its permanent home at the Carmelite Monastery in Philadelphia. The reliquary has been placed in the shrine of St. Therese in the chapel, in the exact place where the "traveling reliquary" of St. Therese was venerated by an estimated ten thousand people in 1999. Fittingly, this is also the place where, until 1997, crowds prayed before the portrait of St. Therese painted by her sister, Celine, and given to the Philadelphia Carmel in 1907 by Miss Pauline Wilcox. In the background is the statue of St. Therese as a Doctor of the Church. November 16, 2013.
