Saint John Vianney the Cure of Ars

Who is Saint John Mary Vianney?

Saint John Mary Vianney was a humble priest, hidden away in a small remote village, too small to appear on most maps of France.  This priest, like the mustard seed, could not be hidden in obscurity; the gifts of the Holy Spirit he received were to bring thousands and thousands to him.  It is no wonder he comes from that section where over a century later, the Charismatic Renewal of France began.  The Holy Spirit goes where He wills, when He wills.

It is also no coincidence, he was born close to where our Lord showed His Sacred Heart to Saint Margaret Mary Alacoque.  Jesus told Margaret Mary, He was more deeply hurt by the Crown of Thorns pressed on His Heart by His friends, than by the One His enemies mockingly placed on His Head.  How many times, Cure did your heart get pierced from a crown of thorns thrust there by friends?  Did it wound you, like it did Jesus? 

Here again, like with Mother Mary's Apparitions and Miracles of the Eucharist, we have clusters of Heavenly happenings.  Could it be, the Lord goes where there is much need?  You could definitely say that of Ars and of France, at the time of Saint John Vianney.  Ars was a village of sin and apathy.  The Cure would spend forty-one years of dry martyrdom, as Pastor of Ars, the only parish he would ever serve.

Saint John Vianney was born in France, the France of Heritage, eldest daughter of the Church.  This France, in his lifetime, would be ripped apart and aborted by revolution.  That malignancy of the spirit was not only to eat away at all the magnificent old traditions of France, but would spread right into the heart of the Church.  As anger cannot be contained, those spoiling and destroying did not stop at the aristocracy, but forgetting why they had begun in the first place, turned on Church, guillotining priests and Nuns.  We share this because, as in the time of Saint John Vianney, if faith, like a garden, is not cared for and nourished, it will die.  And die France did, and the Church along with her.  Only in places like French Canada and our beloved Louisiana can you see evidence of the glorious Heritage of the France of Yesterday.  There, the old traditions and pride in France and the Church flourish, side by side.

The Cure of Ars
Patron Saint of Parish Priests
Perfect Confessor
 

Taped in Ars, France

Come with us to the little hamlet of Ars in France, where we trace the life of the this Super Saint, known as a Saint of the Eucharist, and perfect confessor.

Visit his church in Ars and venerate his incorrupt body;

see his confessional,

the rectory he lived in,

his bed the devil set afire,

the Shrine to his incorrupt heart,

and the altar where Our Lady appeared to him, and where he was healed through the intercession of Saint Philomena.

See the school and orphanage he founded.

Relive with us the difficulty he had becoming a priest, and the struggle to turn the little town of Ars into a religious town, by closing down four taverns and focusing the people on the one Church. 

Learn about the many people who came from all over France, including royalty and princes of the Church, to have him hear their confessions and give them absolution.

Saints And Other Powerful
Men In The Church - Book

Down through the ages, men and women have given their lives to carry out the command of Jesus.  Bob and Penny Lord have tracked the lives of 12 men who have said, Yes! to Jesus, and dedicated their lives to that Yes!, some at the cost of their lives.  Their biographies parallel the times of crisis in our Church.  Bob and Penny have set their sights on the man and the time in which he lived.  They have started at the beginning of our infant Church, with one of the greatest adventurers our Faith has ever known, Paul the Apostle, and continued to our present day, ending with a Paul of the Electronic Age, Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen.
They have focus on the problems in the world and the Church at these crucial times in our history, the men the Lord sent to save the world and the Church from destruction, the struggles they encountered along the way, and the ultimate triumph of Jesus through His Powerful Men in the Church.
