Praise be Jesus Christ in His Angels and Saints!
Please help us in finding men and women of all ages to sign the petition for the beatification of Mother Agnes of Jesus.
Sign your name, age, and the diocese where you live, make sure you write the diocese NOT your town or city. Example: Madison, WI. Write the name of the state next to your diocese. When the request is answered have the persons write it out and signed with their name because they will have to be sent to Rome. Thanks!
God bless you through the intercession of Mother Agnes of Jesus.

Pauline, Mother Agnes of Jesus OCD, is such a spiritual and physical
strength and guide in Therese’s life. If it was not for Pauline’s
influence and guidance the world may never have been given the gift of
Therese worldwide. Pauline was the drive, the influence, the wisdom, the
sounding board and many other things for Therese. It was different times
and women had virtually no influence except for the odd soul such as Joan of
Ark, Catherine of Sienna etc. On behalf of my friend Sue Pacey, OCDS and myself we should like to see this very saintly lady canonized.
Thank for your comment on Mother Agnes of Jesus. Let us continue to pray for her canonization. The Carmelite Nuns in Lisieux, France have not been in favor of her holy cause. But in God’s good time it will take place. God bless you Anne-Louise!

A family like the Martins come once in a lifetime. Therese wished for Leonie and Marie to be saints and we all realize how saintly her parents were. The devotion of the entire family is unheard of especially in this day and age. I understand the Carmels reasoning for not wanting this not trying to make her a saint just to make the entire family saints but I believe she truly had a remarkable gift and calling. If it be the will of God it will happen. Praise God and love to our saintly Martin family.
Do you distribute relic cards of Mother Agnes? May I have one?

Please God that Mother Agnes of Jesus will be recognized for her holiness in spiritual Motherhood. She was a true Mother, both within the Martin family and as a Carmelite religious. We are being asked in this era to recognize and reaffirm the beauty of the Family in all walks of life. She lived a heroic Motherhood of the Spirit. We are praying, asking for her intercession for challenges within our family. Her Mother Azelie, Father Louis, and of course her little sister Therese are saints. Now also her sister Leonie, I believe, has a cause for Sainthood. Sanctity is the bedrock of the family. Let us consider how Pauline (Mother Agnes of Jesus) was the guiding star for the Martin sisters in her lay and religious life. May her example be recognized and her intercession be sought
