Date – Tuesday, May 30th - 2023 – St. Joan of Arc

In the annals of martyrdom, few stories shine as brightly as that of St. Joan of Arc. On the eve of the feast of Corpus Christi, in 1431, Joan faced an unjust and tragic fate. Tied to a stake, surrounded by a pile of firewood, she was labeled a heretic, apostate, and idolater. A crowd gathered, and six hundred English soldiers stood guard.

As she arrived at the site, she requested a cross, a symbol of her unwavering faith. An English soldier fashioned a cross from the broken stick of a lance, and Joan clutched it in her hands. Bound to the stake, she called out to St. Michael, her voice resounding through the square. The executioner lit the firewood, and the flames roared to life. Yet, amidst the inferno, Joan's spirit remained unyielding.

With great conviction, she cried out, proclaiming her fidelity to her mission, declaring, "I was not mistaken, the voices came from Heaven!" In just moments, it was over. The ashes were scattered into the waters of the Seine River, including her heart, which had remained intact, untouched by the flames.

Reflecting on this poignant martyrdom, we are struck by the injustice of the placard around her neck, branding her a heretic. It parallels the fabrication of false accusations against those who fight against progressivism today. Joan's unwavering belief in the voices from Heaven stands as a testament to her sanctity, while the tribunal's attempt to discredit her victories and attribute them to witchcraft exposes their malevolence.

In her final moments, Joan's warrior spirit burned brightly. She requested a cross, underscoring the solemnity of her oath. As the flames consumed her body, she called out, defying her enemies, and encouraging the French resistance against English domination. Her cry reverberated through the square, urging her countrymen to persevere, assuring them that victory would be granted from Heaven.

Amidst the searing flames, a remarkable phenomenon occurred—the fire spared her heart. It was a miraculous affirmation of the truth she had proclaimed: the voices came from Heaven. Yet, recognizing the power that her heart could inspire, the English commanders feared its influence. They discarded it into the river, an act characteristic of the hardened hearts of the impious.

St. Joan of Arc's martyrdom remains a beacon of heroism and devotion. Her unyielding spirit, her resolute faith, and her fearless proclamation at the hour of her death continue to inspire generations. Let us honor her memory and follow in her footsteps, fighting against injustice and proclaiming the truth, until the triumph of God's Kingdom is achieved.

St. Joan of Arc, Pray for us.
