St. John Vianney, a beloved French priest known for his commitments to the community and the church, will soon make an appearance in metro Detroit. 

While the religious leader has been dead for 160 years, his heart lives on. 

According to a news release from the Archdiocese of Detroit, the relic of St. John Vianney is headed to metro Detroit as part of a national pilgrimage hosted by the Knights of Columbus. Titled, “Heart of a Priest,” the tour will feature the actual heart of Vianney, enclosed in a special casing. The heart has resisted decay since his death in 1859.

Stops will include the St. John Vianney Parish in Shelby Township on March 30 and Sacred Heart Major Seminary in Detroit on March 31.

Vianney is part of a phenomenon known in the Catholic Church known as “incorrupt saints.”According to Slate, this involves a group of saints whose bodies never decompose, even if it has been years since the person’s death. Sometimes, it can affect only one body part, like an arm, tongue or, heart. 

Also known as the Curé of Ars, Vianney was seen as a model for generosity, purity and prayerfulness in the Catholic Church, said the news release. Born in 1786, the priest grew up during the time of the French Revolution, which caused the destruction of churches and the murders of clergy.

The mom, who asked to not be publicly named, said the game was used on Friday in her 5-year-old’s classroom at Zablocki Elementary.

“They were shutting off the lights and making it dark and talking to spirits. That’s not something that should be at school,” the mother said of the game, which is said to be able to channel spirits.

Trump Asked To Keep Fatima Statue

REMNANT COMMENT: Is that a rosary in the hand of the President of the United States?

At a time when raw evil is consuming the world, I have no doubt that Donald Trump’s efforts to keep God in the picture is the main reason his enemies hate him so. Of course, he’s not Catholic but his innate desire to use his office to remind the world about God certainly is not not Catholic.

Go to this link for pictures of President Trump with a rosary and statue of Our Lady of Fatima.
