New book...



...produced as a practical response to Pope Benedict's call for a "Year for Priests" under the patronage of St John Vianney. How much do you know about St John Vianney's life? Few Catholics know very much, except that he was a very holy parish priest in rural France and that he fasted and prayed a lot and there were many miracles...now it's time for you to read the whole story, which is a very touching one and with useful messages for today.

The book is available from St Paul Publications and you can order it here

A good holiday read, also useful for schools, for parish catechists...

  1. Well done Joanna.

    Let's hope it becomes the definitive life of this saint.
