Sue captured the love and friendliness that Saint John Vianney had from his deep connection to Jesus. Also known as the "Curé of Ars," he would spend up to eighteen hours a day in the confessional. People came from many miles away to have him hear their confession. He often knew their sins before they would confess them, and he would sometimes remind them of the ones they forgot to confess. This is hugely documented as historical fact. He would hear over 20,000 confessions a year.


He'd had a difficult time becoming a priest. He was not very gifted in the area of academics, and he had been sent to a small country parish in the middle of nowhere. He encountered very small interest in the faith, so he began by praying and fasting intensely for his parish. His prayers were soon answered, and this eventually resulted in a massive following, of crowds coming from all over. There is and has been a famine in the land for the Word of God, but when people hear it, most of them recognize it.


He is the Patron Saint for parish priests, and we have put a lovely prayer for our priests on the back.


Set of 10 or 100 or 1000 holy cards, measuring 2.75 x 4.25 inches each. Good, matte-finish card stock. A beautiful prayer on the back.


Prints and possibly jewelry made with this image are also available in this shop. Search our shop for "Vianney".
