Friends of the Rosary,
Today, the Catholic Church commemorates St. Joan of Arc (1412-1431), the patron saint of France.
In her day, the English were allied with the Burgundians in a war against the rest of France.
Joan was compelled by the voices of her favorite saints — Saint Michael the Archangel, Saint Catherine, and Saint Margaret — to take up arms in defense of her country.
Dressed in a suit of white armor, she led the French in battle against the English, who eventually captured her and publicly burned her in Rouen’s market square on May 30th, 1431, accusing her of witchcraft and heresy.
The Church reversed its decision in 1455, and she was canonized in 1920.
Ave Maria!
Come, Holy Spirit, come!
To Jesus through Mary!
Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.
Please give us the grace to respond with joy!
