Joan of Arc and her ragged convoy finally approach the besieged city of Orleans — but thousands of English soldiers stand in their way. In this Catholic story for kids and families, children will journey beside muddy soldiers, frightened boys, priests, pigs, barges, and the mysterious maiden carrying her white banner into danger.

As fear spreads through the camp, Joan inspires courage, prayer, confession, and hope in the hearts of weary men who think all may already be lost. Then, under cover of darkness, the convoy attempts a dangerous nighttime journey up the river toward starving Orleans.

Will they make it through?

This immersive Catholic family story also explores the virtue of meekness — learning how to pause when angry and choose what is good instead of reacting badly in the moment.
