Television Highlights

THE PASSION OF SAINT JOAN OF ARC
May 30, 10 PM ET, Jun 01, 3 AM ET; Jun 04, 5 AM ET
A documentary released on the centennial of the canonization of the Maid of Orleans (May 16, 1920). This brave young woman with a unique mission reminds us just how important it is that Jesus Christ be the King of our nation, of the entire world, and of our hearts. She carried out her mission in absolute fidelity and confidence in God’s will, revealed to her by her “voices”. Hers is not a life of mere heroism, but rather a model of holiness, of complete surrender to God’s will to the point of sacrificing her own life at only 19 years of age.

THE PASSION OF SAINT JOAN OF ARC DVD

Many know the story of St. Joan of Arc, but few really understand the passion that drove her. This documentary, released on the centennial of her canonization, explores her absolute fidelity to Jesus Christ as King of her heart, her nation and the entire world. The Maid of Orleans had absolute confidence in God’s will, and dedicated herself to a model of holiness that transcended heroism. By surrendering completely to God’s will, she accomplished things that others believed were impossible.
