Prayer
Prayer to St. Anne & St. Joachim
Dear St. Anne and St. Joachim, parents of
the Blessed Virgin Mary, and grandparents
of Jesus, our Divine Lord, listen with pity to
the petition which your loving and trustful
client humbly presents before you.
Surely dear Saints, you are both very dear
to the Heart of Him Whose beloved Mother
was your tender and devoted child! Can He
refuse anything to you, in whose veins the
same blood flowed which afterwards
furnished the precious price of our
Redemption? Great Saints, nothing can be
impossible to your power and influence over
the little Jesus, "Who grew strong in grace
and wisdom" under the maternal care and
direction of your glorious Daughter, the
Queen of Heaven and Earth.
In mercy and
compassion, be like Him "Who went about
doing good," and come to the assistance of
your servant in this great necessity!
St. Anne, St. Joachim, dear parents of her
who is our life, our sweetness and our hope,
pray to her for us and obtain our request!
Amen.
