Editorial Reviews

Product Description

The definitive life, based on the official "Process of Beatification and Canonization," and thus totally factual and documented. Of humble education and assigned to a forgotten farmers' village, he attracted the whole world to Ars and was proclaimed "Patron Saint of Parish Priests" in 1929. He ate one meal a day, slept only a few hours a night, heard confessions up to 17 hours a day, converted thousands. His body remains incorrupt. A grace-filled story of total love of God!

5.0 out of 5 stars Review from Pope John Paul II, August 22, 2002
By A Customer
"In the span of nearly 50 years of priesthood, what is still the most important and most sacred moment for me is the celebration of the Eucharist. My awareness of celebrating in persona Christi at the altar prevails. Never in the course of these years have I failed to celebrate the Most Holy Sacrifice. If this has occurred, it has been due entirely to reasons independent of my will. Holy Mass is the absolute center of my life and of every day of my life. It is at the heart of the theology of the priesthood, a theology I learned not so much from text books as from living examples of holy priests. First and foremost, from the holy Cure of Ars, Jean Marie Vianney. Still today I remember his biography written by Fr. Trochu, which literally overwhelmed me."  (English text of the address given at the International Symposium on the Thirtieth Anniversary of the Promulgation of the Conciliar Decree Presbyterorum Ordinis on Friday, October 27, 1995. Text acquired from L'Osservatore Romano, Weekly English Edition.) Text can also be viewed at the Vatican web site.

5.0 out of 5 stars "A most inspirational account of an extraordinary man", January 14, 1997
By A Customer
St. John Vianney captured my mind, heart, and soul, as a person who struggled life long to bring goodness to the people of Ars. His simplicity of life, acceptance of his limited natural knowledge, drew people all over France to his confessional. He was a seer of souls, and a guide for the down trodden, neglected, broken people of God. His simplicity of life, child like faith, won over the generosity of the rich so as to provide for the ragged, neglected, and impoverished children of Ars and the surrounding villages.
