THE ULMA FAMILY

A devotional leaflet about 
the Ulma family 

Blesseds Jozef (b. 1900) and Wiktoria (b. 1912) Ulma are also remembered on July 7, their wedding anniversary. They were killed for harbouring Jews during the Second World War (on March 24, 1944). Along with the Jewish ladies and gentlemen whom they hid, the couple's children, aged between 7 and newborn, were victims of this barbarous execution.

PRAYER FOR THE INTERCESSION OF THE ULMA FAMILY

Almighty and eternal God, we thank you for the testimony of the heroic love of the spouses Jozef and Wiktoria with their children, who gave their lives to save persecuted Jews.

May their prayers and example support families in Christian life and help everyone to follow the true path of holiness.

Lord, if it is in accordance with Your will, kindly grant me the grace... for which am asking You through their intercession and count them among the Blessed.

Through Christ our Lord. Amen.

Our Father..., Hail Mary ..., Glory be...

FATIMA APPARITION - AUGUST 13 The Fatima Children “BUT IN THE END MY IMMACULATE HEART WILL TRIUMPH.” But in the end my Immaculate Heart will triumph. The Holy Father will consecrate Russia to me; it will be converted, and a certain period of peace will be granted to the world. THE AUGUST 13 EVENTS On August 13, the children were in jail at Ourem. The civil administrator threatened to boil them in oil if they did not tell the Lady’s secret. Though badly frightened, they could not think of disobeying our Lady.

The Proprium of Passau relates his life story as follows: Saint Valentine came from the seashore and arrived at Batava, today's Passau.
