As wife, mother, widow and foundress Louise de Marillac has a particular message of faith hope and love for women of today. This is the story of how her faith journey rooted in her historical and spiritual environment permeated and influenced every aspect of her life as expressed in her personal correspondence and especially in her spiritual writings.
