Angels in the life of Saint Joan of Arc
St. Joan of Arc (1412 - 1431)
Joan of Arc is a strong contradiction in our Church and our world. She was abandoned by the country she had fought so hard to protect; she was condemned by a corrupt bishop of the Church to which she pledged undying loyalty. After her death, that same country made her into a heroine; that same Church made her into a Saint. She is now, with St. Thérèse of Lisieux, co-patroness of France. She was the Little Flower's heroine during Thérèse's lifetime. Little did Thérèse realize they would someday share the same title as Patron Saint of France. And although Joan lived some 460 years before St. Thérèse, she was only canonized five years before the Little Flower.
