Veteran's Day

St Joan of Arc is the patron saint of soldiers. Just after the Battle of Patay, her greatest victory, she came across an enemy soldier who was mortally wounded. Joan dismounted and held the man’s head in her lap to comfort him as he died.

Today we recall all veterans and pray that all who rest with God rest in the same grace and mercy shown by St. Joan of Arc.
