The Year for Priests, St. John Vianney is Patron

The 2009 Liturgical Year has been declared the "Year for Priests" by Pope Benedict. In honor, the Pope has determined that St. John Vianney will be the Universal Patron of Priests.

Many parishes will be celebrating the Year for Priests, which began in June 2009 and will end in June 2010. We will be called to pray for and support our priests, now more than ever.

Consider a St. John Vianney gift for your priest. Although we don't currently have much online (will try to get to that), you can call in or visit the store. We have...
--Book: Thoughts of the Cure D'Ars but St. John Vianney
--CD: Celebration of your Priesthood: You are a Priest Forever
--Limited Edition St. John Vianney Pocket Token or Medal

The United States Conference of Catholic Bishops has additional information on the Year for Priests here:
