St. John Vianney is the patron saint of priests and his feast day is August 4. Santa Teresita Statuary gives us this fiberglass statue of St. John Vianney which is 3 feet tall and colored. Many feel St. John Vianney represents the ideal of priesthood as he lived a life of mortification but was unfailingly humble, gentle, patient and cheerful which is one of the reasons he was named the patron saint of parish priests. The St. John Vianney statue shows him dressed in a black cassock and white surplice with a purple stole of penitence. The St. John Vianney statue would be perfect for a chapel or small area where you would like to have a statue portraying a person who lived his life in service to others. One of the things admired about St. John Vianney was his ability to collect funds for the orphanages he serviced. This statue can be made with a variety of materials in a variety of sizes and with a variety of finishes.
