Just out of curiosity does anyone have a devotion to St. Joan of Ark and has anything ever happened in your life that could be attributed to her?
 
Pax Christi!

I love La Pucelle, but I don’t have any stories about her.

EXCEPT: I once saw a statue of her with wings. Wings?! She’s not an angel…

God bless!

Angels don’t have wings either. 🙂
Angels are depicted in paintings with wings (or when they appear to others) because the wings represent the swiftness with which they respond to God’s will and move from place to place.

Joan of Arc obeyed her voices and was swift to respond to God’s will.
 
Wings, hmm sounds like a more artistic way of expressing Joan
 
I have always admired her even before converting to Christianity.
I was considering going into the military but I had a dream about her in battle on her horse one night. I thought it might be a sign to go into the military but here in Australia you have to pick a job to apply for, so I looked into the jobs in the Army and the only one I was interested in was be a Nurse but that led me on to start a career towards being Nurse.
If I hadn’t had the dream of Joan, I wouldn’t have looked into the military and looking into being a nurse and wouldn’t have found my career that I’m now working towards.
 
She reminds me of David and Golliath. That the weak, in the stong hands of God, can accomplish amazing things.
