Cure of Ars

Memorial: 4 August

**Profile **
Farm hand who in his youth taught other children their prayers and catechism. Ordained in 1815, though it took several years study as he had little education, was not a very good student, and his Latin was terrible. Assigned for a while to Ecully. In 1818 he was assigned to the parish of Ars, a tiny village near Lyons, which suffered from very lax attendance; he began visiting his parishioners, especially the sick and poor. Spent days in prayer, doing penance for his parishioners. Gifted with discernment of spirits, prophecy, hidden knowledge, and working miracles. Tormented by evil spirits, especially when he tried to get his 2-3 hours of sleep each night. Crowds came to hear him preach, and to make their reconciliation because of his reputation with penitents; by 1855 there were 20,000 pilgrims a year to Ars. Spent 40 years as the parish priest.

Born 8 May 1786 at Dardilly, Lyons, France

Died 4 August 1859 at Ars, France of natural causes

Congratulations! You are in my prayers as you embark on this segment of your discernment! Deo Gratias!
 
I like the name of your seminary. Last year I visited the shrine of Our Lady of Guadalupe. I really felt her presence there. May Our Lady of Guadalupe hold you:hug3: in her arms and guide you through your years of study to become one of her favorite servants of God! :blessyou:
 
Oh Trev…i am just so very proud of you.
