    St Joachim and Anne has been a role modern to my christian inspiration. How? The holy spirit have review more behinde their name to me, the genesis of their given birth to our blessed mother (Mary) which draw me closer to attach my faith to believe that am a christian and fighting to measure-up to a standard in being wordlie in the face of my saviour, redeem and creator.

    St Ann and St Joachim were chosen by God to bring into the world someone worthy to be the mother of His son. Enough said, brilliant saints, i always ask them for help and they always help.

    St. Anne is a very powerful intercessor. Pray a novena prayer to St. Anne to obtain a special favor. She has answered my prayers.

    I will be adopting St Anne as my own Saint... I have no children, but have faith that through the prayers of St Anne, the Lord will give us our own child.
    My mother is also called Anna.
    If I am given a daughter, I will name this child Anna or Anne.
