#Repost @catholic_teen_posts (@get_repost) γ»γ»γ» From caffeinatedcoffee on tumblr β€οΈ 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 βpassβ and then went on talking about whatever the heck she wanted to) 3. She was her armyβs Mom. (she basically had a swear jar for her soldiersβ 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 churchβs 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 saintsβ radar (HER patrons, St. Catherine, St. Margaret and St. Michaell the Archangel) 7. She was a shorty. (witnesses put her at 5β³2) 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 wouldnβt 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 venerateβSO I KNOW YALL CORRUPT PEASANTS KNEW SHE WAS A SAINT!) 10. You donβt 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. youβre gunna be a soldier. #solider of #Christ #StJoan #prayforus #feastday #courage #brave #loveher #martyr #france #paris #churchmilitant #spiritual #battle #catholic #catholicchuch #christian
