![SAINT JOHN MARIE VIANNEY Priest and Confessor Born: Jean-Marie-Baptiste Vianney Feast day: August 4 Congregation: Third Order of Franciscans Patronage: Diocesan Priest and Confessors Relic: Ex Indumentis/From the Clothing St. John Vianney (born May 8, 1786, Dardilly, France—died August 4, 1859, Ars; canonized May 31, 1925; feast day August 4 [formerly August 9]) was a French Roman Catholic priest who was renowned as a confessor and for the many healing miracles that he performed. He is the patron saint of parish priests. Vianney was the son of farmers. Because of the French Revolution (1787–99), he received little education. Given the anticlerical sentiment of the Hébertists (a group of extremists who demanded a Revolutionary government that was anti-Christian) during the Reign of Terror, Vianney was forced to make his first communion and confession secretly. He was impressed by the heroism of the nuns and priests who risked their lives for their faith. Vianney felt called to pursue the priesthood but struggled with Latin and needed private tutoring to supplement his lack of formal education. His studies were interrupted when he was drafted into Napoleon’s armies in 1809. Whether deliberately or by serendipity, he was separated from his draft group and ended up in a rural village with a number of army deserters, where he was forced to hide until the decree of amnesty for all deserters in 1810. He was ordained in 1815 and was made assistant priest at Écully, France. In 1818 Vianney became priest of the small village of Ars, which he made a model parish and from which reports of his holiness and his supernatural powers soon spread. He was known for his devotion to the Virgin Mary and to St. Philomena, a virgin martyr whose relics had been discovered in a catacombs in Rome in 1802. This discovery inspired intense devotion to Philomena by many Catholics. Vianney often invoked her as he administered to his parishioners, and he encouraged them to pray to her. Many healing miracles occurred in his parish, which he attributed to Philomena’s intercession. Vianney was also dedicated to administering the sacrament of reconciliation (confession) to his parishioners. From 1824 he suffered attacks that he believed were caused by the Devil, who allegedly on one occasion set fire to Vianney’s bed. By 1827 Ars had become a pilgrimage site, and, every year from 1845 until Vianney’s death, about 20,000 persons visited Ars to see Vianney and especially to make their confession to him. He was affectionately known as the Curé d’Ars (French: Pastor of Ars). The holy curé spent up to 16 hours daily in his confessional. Vianney was canonized in 1925 by Pope Pius XI, who declared him the heavenly patron of parish priests four years later. His relics are kept in a sanctuary that is named for him in Ars.
