Saint Joan of Arc Feast Day

The feast day for Joan of Arc is celebrated on May 30th every year which is the anniversary of her death when she was burned in the old square of Rouen on May 30th in 1431. Saint Joan of Arc's feast day is a chance to remember her for the great woman of faith that she was and to celebrate her ultimate victory over evil. As Pope Benedict XV proclaimed in 1920 at her canonization ceremony:
May the whole world hear, and just as it has come to admire her brave deeds in defense of her country, may it now and henceforward venerate her as a most brilliantly shining light of the Church Triumphant.
