#Repost @catholic_teen_posts (@get_repost) ・・・ From caffeinatedcoffee on tumblr ❤️ 10 Things I love about St. Joan of Arc 1. Nothing could stop her (even when the Dauphin decided to play a trick on her at their first meeting and chose one of his pages to pose as himself while he hid in the crowd. Joan walked straight up to the real Dauphin despite never having seen him before.) 2. She was sassy even during her trial (whenever she did want to answer a question during her trials she literally said “pass” and then went on talking about whatever the heck she wanted to) 3. She was her army’s Mom. (she basically had a swear jar for her soldiers’ filthy mouths, ran the prostitutes out of her camps, and sent her boys to confession before every battle) 4. She is rumored to have loved the Eucharist so much that she broke into a church’s monstrance and ministered to herself so she could receive (tone it back girl) 5. she survived an arrow to the chest??? 6. Asking St. Joan for prayer pm automatically puts you on 3 other saints’ radar (HER patrons, St. Catherine, St. Margaret and St. Michaell the Archangel) 7. She was a shorty. (witnesses put her at 5″2) 8. She was given a set of white armour that reflected the sun so strongly that her opponents thought she was a literal angel and they ran away crying (probably) 9. Her heart wouldn’t burn while the rest of her body was consumed by the flames (they dumped her ashes and heart into the river so they would be lost and no one could have relics to venerate—SO I KNOW YALL CORRUPT PEASANTS KNEW SHE WAS A SAINT!) 10. You don’t have to be in her list of typical patronages, if she picks you, she marches into your life like the tiny, mad mom friend she is and she will TEAR YOUR LIFE UP. you’re gunna be a soldier. #solider of #Christ #StJoan #prayforus #feastday #courage #brave #loveher #martyr #france #paris #churchmilitant #spiritual #battle #catholic #catholicchuch #christian
