St. Joan of Arc

 

St Joan of Arc was born a poor peasant girl in France in 1412. She prayed hard and worked to enCOURAGE everyone around her because she loved Jesus.

When Joan was 17 years old, she heard a voice from God telling her to drive enemies of France away. St Joan said she was only a young girl and did not know how to do this. But she found the courage to go to King Charles and ask for an army. He granted her request.

Joan continued to stand strong and find the courage to do what she was asked. Joan prayed hard. She encouraged the soldiers. Even though it didn’t seem possible, Joan led the army to victory in many battles. France was saved!

St Joan, help me find the courage to stand strong for Jesus and enCOURAGE everyone I meet!
