St. Theophane Venard (1829-1861) was born on November 21 and was originally from the diocese of Poitiers, France. He entered into the Foreign Missions of Paris and got ordained in 1852. He was sent to Vietnam two years after his ordination. He devoted his time to teaching in a seminary until his arrest and brutal martyrdom. Theophane was chained in a cage for months and then beheaded. He was canonized in 1988 by Pope St. John Paul II.


St. Theophane Venard please pray for all the missionaries especially the ones who have left their home land to serve God.
