🔥 Saint of the Day: St. Joan of Arc 🔥Feast Day: May 30
In a world full of noise and uncertainty, St. Joan of Arc reminds us what it means to listen to God's voice with courage and act with unwavering faith, even when the world doesn’t understand us.

Though she was young and untrained, she led armies and inspired a nation, all because she trusted in the divine call placed in her heart.

What is God asking of you today?
Maybe it's not leading troops into battle , but it might be standing up for truth, forgiving someone, or staying faithful when it’s hard.

💬 “I am not afraid… I was born to do this.” – St. Joan of Arc

🕊️ St. Joan of Arc, pray that we may be brave, faithful, and open to God’s will in our lives.

Pope Leo XIV is inviting Catholics around the world to join him in praying the Rosary for peace this Saturday, May 30.

The Rosary will be prayed live from the Lourdes Grotto in the Vatican Gardens at 7:00 p.m. Rome time (10:00 a.m. Pacific Time) as part of a worldwide initiative organized by the Dicastery for Evangelization. Catholics everywhere are being encouraged to unite spiritually with the Holy Father and pray for peace in a world marked by war, division, and suffering.

Several major Marian shrines across the world will take part, including Fatima in Portugal, Lourdes in France, Antipolo in the Philippines, Zarvanytsia in Ukraine, Loreto in Italy, Medjugorje in Bosnia and Herzegovina, and the Shrine of St. Charbel in Lebanon.

At the same time, Catholics in the United States will be able to join a livestream prayer gathering led by Monsignor Walter Rossi from the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception in Washington, D.C.

In a recent homily, Pope Leo XIV encouraged the faithful to pray for an end to war and reminded us that true peace comes from the "omnipotence of love."

Since the beginning of his pontificate, he has repeatedly called for prayers for those suffering from violence, especially in the Middle East, Africa, and Ukraine.

In times of uncertainty, it's easy to focus only on human solutions. Catholics are also called to turn to prayer and place their trust in God.

This Saturday, Catholics from every continent will be invited to pray the same Rosary together for peace.

You can watch live through Vatican News or through the National Shrine livestream:

While working high above the ground, an electrical technician made a small gesture that is now moving thousands on social media: leaving small images of Jesus behind for fellow workers to find during their day.

TikTok user “limitededition135” shared a video of himself carrying out his usual work among electrical wires. In the clip, the worker can be seen gluing small images of Jesus while being filmed by a colleague.

“Leaving Jesus for another lineman to find. Amen,” he says.

A lineman is a worker who specializes in installing, repairing, and maintaining power lines and energy transmission systems.

Although the job is physically demanding and high-risk — often requiring workers to operate at great heights, endure extreme weather conditions, and work near high-voltage cables — this technician doesn’t miss an opportunity to evangelize.

Perhaps that is why his simple gesture has touched the hearts of thousands online.
