St Joachim and St Anne, pray for us!

     All of us, as mothers and fathers, are destined to become parents of Saints. All of the countless children, unnoted, that are truly Saints in Heaven. I'm sure Saint Anne and Saint Joachim, prayed for a namesake, a child to complete their family. In doing so, consecrating their prayer with offering to God a child they wished to be blessed with. Thank you, oh God, for the great gift of their blessed union, to have given us our beloved Blessed Mother Mary. Oh! What sincere prayer creates. What miracles of Salvation await the pleading cries resigned to God. Saying yes, in both cases of Saints Joachim and Anne and of course, in the sweet resignation of Mary's approval to St Gabriel, stemmed Salvation. A Mother and a Father. Jesus and Mary and Holy Grandparents. To also have a bonus of a complete Holy family. How good our God is! How loving. Always thinking about us, His children. 

     Saints Joachim and Anne our wonderful intercessors for us! Just as Jesus listens and loves His Mother Mary with our prayers, so too, our Lady, listens to Her Mother and Father on our behalf. We are united to the great lineage and family of the Heavens. Our Holy Father and our Mother and Grandma and Grandpa. 

    Saint Joachim and Saint Anne, pray for us!
