THE CURÉ D'ARS
St. Jean-Marie-Baptiste Vianney
By Abbe Francis Trochu
630 page book (5.5" x 8.5")- only $12.50! (Limit 3)
Because of his lack of schooling and inaptitude for academic subjects, the
Curé of Ars encountered great difficulty being ordained a priest, yet only seventy years after his
death he was named Patron Saint of Parish Priests. The devil once revealed to him that were there
three such men as himself on earth, his (Satan's) kingdom would be broken. In this definitive work
on the life of St. Jean-Marie-Baptiste Vianney, Father Trochu has recorded the many extraordinary
facts surrounding the life and vocation of the Curé of Ars. Because they are so remarkable, he has for
the most part discarded popular legend and has based his book on the official Process of Beatification
and Canonization, rendering thereby an account which is at once marvelous and authentic. The reader
will search long and deep in the annals of the Church to find a Saint's life so unusual and inspiring.
