According to the Apostolic Penitentiary, a partial indulgence is granted to those who on the feast of any Saint recite in his honour the oration of the Missal or any other approved by legitimate Authority.
V. O Lord, hear my prayer.
R. And let my cry come unto thee.
Let us pray.
O God, Thou hast chosen Saint Joan of Arc to defend her country against the invading enemy. Through her intercession, grant that we may work for justice and live in peace.
Let us pray.
O God, Thou hast chosen Saint Joan of Arc to defend her country against the invading enemy. Through her intercession, grant that we may work for justice and live in peace.
Through Jesus Christ Our Lord, who liveth and reigneth with the Father, in the unity of the Holy Ghost, God, world without end.
R. Amen
Nota bene ~ St Joan is not celebrated on the Universal Calendar, but is included in the Missal under "Mass in Some Places". Also, many people think St Joan is a Martyr. She is remembered as a Virgin because she was not killed in odium fidei.

Attacks on the Catholic Faith will not be tolerated. Comments will be deleted that are republican (Yanks! Note the lower case 'r'!), attacks on the legitimacy of Pope Leo XIV as the Vicar of Christ, the legitimacy of the House of Windsor or of the claims of the Elder Line of the House of France, or attacks on the legitimacy of any of the currently ruling Houses of Europe.
