More About St. Anne
St. Anne is the mother of Our Lady, and as such has been accorded great honor within Catholic Tradition.

She was the spouse of St. Joachim and is invoked in particular for the intention of finding one’s future husband. She is also considered the patroness of housewives, women in labor, and grandmothers.

The story goes that St. Anne was childless for decades, and that she and St. Joachim prayed and fasted for the blessing of a child. Our Lord granted their pious request, and they conceived the Blessed Virgin Mary.

Devotion to St. Anne sprung up in the Christian East first, in the early Middle Ages, and spread to the Church in the West through the Medieval period.

When we consider how virtuous and holy our Blessed Mother was, we can imagine the tremendous graces that our Lord gave to her parents, Sts. Joachim and Anne, that they would faithfully instruct their daughter in the ways of God.
