THE CURE OF ARS - THE PRIEST WHO OUT-TALKED THE DEVIL

Here's another great read in our Vision Book series for ages 9-15 (we know adults love them too!) It's interesting to note that most of the biographies on which this story is based were written by men who either knew the Cure de Ars in his lifetime, or who got their information from people who did. Paperback, 12 Chapters, 138 pages. Jean-Marie Vianney, a farm boy born during the French Revolution, longed to become a priest. But he could not learn Latin, and it seemed as if the humble, lovable, slow-thinking Jean-Marie would never be ordained. He did at last become a priest, and such a holy one that St. Jean-Marie Vianney is invoked as the patron saint and model of parish priests everywhere. To many he is known, not by name, but simply as the "Cure of Ars," the parish priest who devoted his life to the little village of Ars and so successfully led his people to sanctity that he became a prime target of the devil.
