John Mary Vianney wanted to be a priest—but no matter how hard he tried in school, he never did very well. Studying was hard, and Latin was even harder. But John was a good and holy man, full of common sense, and he knew his Catholic Faith. When John was finally ordained a priest, he was sent to a troubled parish in Ars, France, where people drank too much, used terrible language, and skipped Mass on Sunday. No one expected John to accomplish much. But through his prayers, preaching, and long hours in the confessional—plus some miraculous gifts from above—God used John to convert thousands of hearts and transform an entire town. Discover the power of prayer and the sacraments through the incredible true story of Saint John Mary Vianney, the Curé of Ars (1786-1859), patron of parish priests!
