Thank you for joining us in the St. Anne Novena, one of our very favorite novenas!
We hope that St. Anne’s intercession has brought you peace and comfort.
If you experienced an answered prayer during or after this novena, please share it with us all below! We must praise God, and give Him all the glory, for all the good things He is doing in our lives.
We know that for every answered prayer we share, there are many other unanswered prayers too; and we know how discouraging that can be. We don’t want you to lose hope or to stop praying.
In fact, nearly all of the Saints that we ask for intercession are incredible examples of how we should persist in our prayers and keep our faith strong. St. Anne, for example, prayed for decades to conceive before God granted this desire of hers (which would become the Blessed Virgin Mary!).
Now, if you have had some prayers go seemingly unanswered (you’re not alone), and you’ve been asking yourself, “Should I just stop praying?” — here’s a post I wrote that may be able to help:
Thank you for joining us in prayer!
We are praying for you.
My younger brother has changed significantly for the better after my sister and I began praying this Novena and after praying it. Thank you St. Anne and St. Joachim.
I have done the St.Anne novena too for certain intentions and though they have not been answered as yet… I still praise and thank GOD for those prayerful moments with him and the unseen graces it will bring my family and myself.. Im glad my prayers were a part of the answered prayers of that which I read in my mail. His ways are mysterious and that I get to love HIM and call on his holy name is a privilege in itself. That was a beautiful Novena… Thank you soo much :) :).. Do keep me in your prayers.
My husband is struggling with his faith. I have been trying to get him to come with me to a shrine in honor of Our Lady. He said he would not, but after their novena changed his mind. Thank you St. Anne! You know your daughter will intercede for him
I prayed that my friend Ben would recover from his cardiac problems. Ben is better and at home after a long hospital stay.
Sometimes, prayers are answered slowly. Thank you Jesus’ Grandparents.
Thank you all for your prayers-I have prayed for all of you. May God Bless and answer all your requests. I wait in every expectation for God’s will!
Never give up-always know God hears you.
Shortly after praying this novena my mothers house was sold. I had a difficult times selling it because of the age and state it was in. A really sweet couple seen thru the neglect and bought the house. They have promised to bring it back to life again and they are a good catholic couple. I know praying this novena was the right thing to do at the right time.
I was praying for a better job in this novena, three days into the novena, I receive a call from a cousin who had a job openning, I need more prayers because I have not received the job acceptance letter yet. I thank st anne and st joachim for their intercetion. Amen.
My prayers for a job and being re-united with my sister has been answered. Thank you so much for your prayers and support. God is good!
I had a good prognosis from my physician, after he checked me today. I had an enlarged lump behind my neck and my white blood cells count was a little elevated in last weeks blood work. My family and I were so concerned. I prayed the Novena to St. Anne.
My Dr. said I was okay. Praise God, and His Holy Name! Thank you St. Anne for praying for me to your Holy a Grandson! Prayers in community are so powerful!
Yes I have something to share..I pray for the animals of the world..for kind human compassion towards them as our Lord wants..and I also pray for the organizations and societies that truly want to help those animals.
Last year in Nov 2014 in Nepal there was a slaughter of buffalo..Thousands…I was just informed from the HS International that HSI, along with Animal Welfare Network Nepal (AWNN), have successfully convinced the trustees of the Gadhimai temple in Nepal to forbid animal sacrifice at future festivals. This means that animals like water buffalo, cows, goats, chickens, pigeons and pigs will be spared a grisly death by bludgeoning or decapitation in the horrific slaughter that happens there every five years. This is wonderful news !! I pray for humans not to feel apathy towards other species here on earth ..We must learn to love everything the Lord gave us and treat with respect…Thank you St Anne for hearing my prayer.
Thank you for hearing my prayers, St. Anne. The week the novena started for St. Anne was the week that I needed to have my prayer offering for my husband. My husband and I had an argument and his pride got in the way and lasted almost 3 weeks before his behavior started to change. Before the St. Anne’s novena finished, my husband and I were able to communicate again.
Thank you.
Please take away all the pain in my teeth without surgery.
My husband has been traveling overseas a lot for many years for business and just recently I found out that he has been deceiving me and took lots of money without my knowing. I was very devastated once I found out. We had many fights over the issue and we were getting very close to a divorced. Because I I love my family and want to save this marriage. I have prayed and asked God to give me the courage and help me to forgive my husband and also ask God to change my husband’s heart and turn away from sin and any temptations. One day I was in praying and cried alone in front of the tabernacle and asked God his guidance. All of a sudden, the song of St. Francis came to my mind, “it is in pardoning that we are pardoned”. I knew right then that was God’s answer, so I thank God for his guidance and left with a much lighter Burden in my heart and happiness. Jesus I trust in you!
So, during the week that we pray to St. Anne, I asked St. Anne to intercede for my family and for my husband to turn around. I have noticed that he is changing for better and show more love and caring for me and my 2 children. Thanks to St. Anne and please continue to intercede for us all.
I typically keep everything private, but a miracle has happened to me. After 30 years of being separated from my true love, he is now back in by life. Thank you St Anne and pray warriors.
I have a friend who has been pressurising me for sex. I like him a lot but recently the relationship was becoming adultrous & was threatening our friendship. On the 6th day of the novena, we prayed for those fighting with addiction to sin, coincidentally, it was the feast day of Mary Magdalene. I was touched & asked the intercession of the two saints to interceed for me & God to touch him. On the feast day of St. Anne, he told me he doesn’t want to sleep with me & we should just remain friends. I bless God through his saints.
My wife was looking for a job for last 6 months. She had attended 3 interviews and was waiting for reply and it had been 2 weeks with no update on the same. We prayed the St. Anne Novena and on day 6 she got confirmation that she was selected and on day 9 she got the offer letter. The company was looking for 3 male candidates, but eventually decided on 2 male and one female candidate. We believe that it’s the intercession of the St. Anne & St Joachim that it was possible.
Blessed be God in His Angels and in His Saints.

Throughout my vocation of Motherhood, I have often asked our Blessed Mother and St. Anne for their intercession. Two months ago our daughter was married to a wonderful young man and the possibility of becoming a grandmother fills my heart with joy! Throughout the Novena, I prayed to St. Anne and asked that when the time comes, my desire is to be a grandmother like her, who will pass on my faith to my grandchildren by my words and actions. On the 9th day of the novena, my daughter and son in law told us that they are expecting their first child…my first grandchild!
Thank you, St. Anne, for your intercession. I will be a Nana much sooner than I thought!
Some of my prayers were partially answered and I just wanted to say thank you to St. Anne and St. Joachim for interceding on my behalf.
Amen
I was thrown off of a malfunction tread mill 6 weeks ago and broke my arm/shoulder, and suffered a lot of trauma due to that accident. The doctor told me the 27th that I am 90% healed and do not have to see a therapist, just continue 2 exercises that I have been doing that has allow my arm to raise high – Praise God.
I found out today. After 8 months they are going to remove my feeding tube. I am so thankful to be able to eat again after having larynx cancer.
I prayed the St. Anne novena with the main intention that my sister find a holy Catholic husband, and on St. Anne’s feast day, her current boyfriend (who needs to change before he can be that man for her) broke off their relationship for good, which I know is the first step in the right direction and an answered prayer. Thank you dearly wonderful St. Anne!
We listed our home for sale the last day of the St. Anne novena with my intention to get a contract quickly, today we signed a contract! St. Anne interceded big time!
God has not answered my prayers for a good Christian Catholic man. But He is guiding me to learn to be a good Christian women before so I can be devoted to God first & then a good married spouse
During the Novena to St. Anne, I prayed fervently for my children’s vocations and that they may be guided by Our Lord to do His will in their lives, whatever it may be. My wife and I have always hoped that perhaps one of the children would have a religious vocation. Well, out of the blue, on the very Feast Day of St. Anne, we were blessed by the presence of a missionary priest, a parish priest and a seminarian in our home! They came for dinner, and even prepared the meal! What a blessing! Thank you St. Anne!
During this prayer I prayed for discernment of what job position I should take, and God made it clear to me what school to go with. On the 7th Day was the Saint’s day that is name of one of the school’s and on the 8th day the school called me and offered me a position. In addition, my three daughters were praying this with me and my youngest was praying to do well with her softball games and she did a great job pitching and her team won the 1st place trophy for the whole season. Thank you for your answered prayers Lord, and thank you St. Anne for your intercession.
Im a widow and currently have a suitor who is far away from another country. It is not easy for me to just jump into a relationship for a second time since it entails a lot of thinking. So i prayed to St Ann to lead me the way. If i get a visa then those are the signs that he is for me n it is Gods plan for me. Which on 24th i got my visa clearance. Thank you St Ann n St Joaquin for making my decision easier. I know a lot will be decided upon but this is a great sign that i have to consider. Thank u Lord
My granddaughter has a severe acquired brain injury. They have been weaning her off phenobarbital . She is down to just the tiniest dose with no new seizure activity. She still takes three seizure meds as well as a movement disorder medication. I prayed that the wean would be successful and it has been. I pray every novena for her and fir her parents and little sister. I pray God will give us a miracle and help my son and his wife to be able to pay their bills while we have not received the miracle we pray for we have received many little ones
I’ve been praying for a position as an administrator but I have also been praying for my son and daughter in law that they have a healthy child and will baptise the child when they are born this Feb.
Last Friday, I received a message to interview, I was the first candidate selected for an interview and hopefully will be called back for second interview. I believe this is an answer to my prayer and will let you know how my prayers were answered.

I have been living with metastatic breast cancer since March 2014. After a fairly long period of stability, over the last 3 months, my tumor markers have been rising, to the point where both my oncologist and I were convinced that the disease had progressed. All along, I have been praying with the various novenas, most recently, the one to Saint Anne. This past Friday, I went to have a full-body bone scan and CT of chest/abdomen/pelvis. I was extremely anxious throughout the weekend, but kept petitioning for courage and strength, as well as healing. Monday afternoon, I received the word that there has been NO PROGRESSION and NO NEW TUMOR ACTIVITY! My husband, my oncologist, and I were all overcome with happy and grateful tears. Although he is very skilled, I knew in my heart that my prayers, and those of all my friends and loved ones, had been answered.
My heart has been empty and alone since I lost the love of my life on 6/15/13. Four months after that I was rear ended and my car was totaled. Been off of work for 6 months and placed on the graveshift hours, not by choice, which I couldn’t function well or stay up. A few months longer I finally gotten a transfer to days, thank goodness. I then landed with a facility that ran me out due to the lack of care, support, help and management (nursing home). I honestly felt that it was changing me to the core that it made me question if I still wanted to do this type of work, mind you I absolutely love what I do as an nurse assistance, at least until I came to this facility. Feeling overwhelmed and defeated I began my search all over again and found a job in my small town of 560 people, in town mind you, means “no competition” with other nursing homes that I ended up taking a huge paycut working for less than I should be getting paid. Took a breather and felt “thankful” not to mention ”grateful” that I finally found a job after weeks of no paycheck coming in I swallowed my pride and gladly accepted because after all i was doing what I love to do. One month into the job I was let go and tried to fight for my job but the administrator wasn’t having it and terminated me (a new rule that went into affect the weekend before I got fired) which automatically terminates without any resolution or grievances. I have been in constant hurting from losing my love, losing my car, jobs and become in debt trying to replace my vehicle by leasing one, which I ended up losing. My heart weighing heavy and my mind in constant thinking mode without any success, I continue to pray for a great paying job, one that my three teenagers can rely upon without losing our home. I pray for a new location (home) one that is near and closer to, most importantly, my family instead of the over an hour trip each way. I’d like to be available for my parents who are having to go to doctors appointments almost every week if not being able to make a trip to the store for their needs as well. Prayers so I can get a great paying job that would be less traveling time to work and be able to live independently without any more financial problems so I can help raise my family on my own. Thank you and I apologize for this being too long. I’ve been keeping this bottled up too long to myself. God bless and I pray for everyone else who may need more help than me, thank you again.
Thank you St Anne
At the end of the Novena I got aDr’s Appt
My friend got admission for her sister in Nursing Home
Please intercede for my other intentions too

After 4months of being home i got a job after saying the St Anne novena
This was my first time praying the Saint Anne Novena. I hadn’t even taken time to reflect on the outcome of the novena on my family until I received the email with the answered prayers. I usually pray for another baby in our family as we have had nine pregnancies and only three babies. This time I prayed for peace in our family and our world and for peace for our three year old son for whom we have been seeking help for some behavioral issues and fears. During the novena our family began praying the rosary again in the evenings together. It has given me such peace to be praying the rosary as a family again. Then a couple days ago I received a call that there had been a cancellation at the specialized Hospital and instead of having to wait until the end of September our three-year-old gets an appointment with the developmental specialist tomorrow! All these things happened and I didn’t even connect them to my praying the novena to St. Anne. Clearly it was her intercession that has brought me and my family peace. Thank you St. Anne for your powerful intercession! She is now the patron Saint of our homeschool!
My sister was waiting phone back calls from embryologist to see if her embryos was ready for implantation. It was the 2nd last day but no calls. I prayed to St Anne and guess what we received a call at the very last min on the last day that my sister is ready for implantation. Never had my prayers been answered but this is a miracle. I will continue to pray for my sister and her babies so that they will be healthy.
I have been praying for my daughter who was born with blount diseases on her leg. she has had 2 surgeries on the leg but still not geting better. We decided to be referred to another orthopaedic hospital but couldn’t get any appointments. Continously praying for her in the novena and also Divine Mercy prayers just 4 days ago we got an appointment to be seen in the orthopaedic hospital of our choice .
I pray that God will go before us in the new hospital to grant her perfect healing. Amen. Jesus I trust in you. St Anne pray for my daughter, she has gone through lots of pain.
My son finally got a job! Thank you Jesus.
I was praying for an answer to my difficult work situation and I had decided to resign. But God in his love chose to have me be released for my job immediately the same day. Not what I expected but truly an answer to prayer.
I prayed for peace in God’s will for job opportunities for my husband and I. I was seeking a new position and my husband was in need of employment. On day 8 of the St. Anne Novena my husband was offered a fabulous job opportunity. I have found peace in staying content with what I have.
Oh ever glorious St.Anne and St. Joachim, thank you very much for granting my prayers for my mom’s house to sell. Yesterday, I got a decent offer for the house. I will continue to pray that everything will follow through without any delay. Most ever glorious St. Anne you never left my side ever since the time I asked for your help and guidance. Thank you very very much for all your help. I love you.
My prayer request was to be able to do God’s will in all things for the rest of my life…as I grow older, I find it difficult to understand what is the best decision to make in various situations… I do not actually hear God speaking to me, but I do find that how I choose to handle things could be close to what he would expect of me. Please God, those occasions will become more frequent.
I will continue to invoke St Anne and St Joachim in mydaily prayers, a practice I started some years ago. Thanks for your prayers and I look forward to the Novena to St Philomena.
I have been worrying and having anxiety and each day I felt all my worries and anxiety lessen. On the final day I felt such joy. It was wonderful. Thank you St Anne!
My wife and children along with several of our fellow parishioners prayed this novena for healing and help for my wife who suffers from a terribly painful nerve disease. On day 9 of the novena a friend of ours that we haven’t seen in a long time told us about a friend of hers that has the same condition. She found a doctor who was able to help her reduce her pain dramatically. We are hopeful that my wife can see the same doctor and get a similar outcome. St. Anne definitely interceded on our behalf. Please continue to pray for us. Praise God and thank you St. Anne!
During the st anne novena I prayed that God should confirm that my fiancee is my wife.in the course of the novena a man of God prophesied to her that I am her husband.
I have been praying for years, it seems like, for the sale of our home. Nothing has come of that yet but there has been other good things that have happened since doing these novenas.
Thank You, Dearest Lord, for making these things happen.
For over a year I have been trying to get my granddaughters safe. Their mother is very unstable. I deliberately started the Novena to St. Anne a day late so I would finish the night before our court date. That was today. Now the girls are safe, reunited with their father and I have two very happy teenage granddaughters!
We found a house for my son and his pets that is very close to his school and work and will be moving in this August.Thank you so much Saint Anne for interceding with my prayers .It had been a challenge to find a house that would accept pets at this time…I love you

I joined this Novena forum since last year and have been praying them ever since. I have been out of work for quite a while due to child birth and raisin my children. I applied for several jobs but was turned down because of lack of experience. Despite this, I never gave up and now I’ve got a very good job with full training and increments every year. All I can say is that our God is good all the time and With Him nothing is impossible. B C
My husband was given good news regarding his PET scan,tumors are gone so this will give him some hope to get thru the next 3 treatments.thank you.
I fervently prayed the Saint Anne novena and today, I found out that my name has been exonerated, as I requested. To God be the glory and to Saint Anne!
RSDP
I have been praying that my daughter would a Catholic man and she did but he has not been to Mass for a very long time. So this time praying to St. Anne I asked if she could get him back to Mass and she did. The last day of the Novena he went to Mass with my daughter.
Thank you St. Anne :-)
I prayed that my brothers would stop fighting among each other..well my prayer was answered because I was told that have decided to join and work together.Thank God and St Anne
I have been praying for my son to receive an answer on his application for his internship to start in September during the week of the novena he received an email for an interview and he did the interview and this week he received an email that was accepted to start September. Now he just needs the final approval from his school. God is good. Thanks to the Novena prayer to St. Anne. I will continue my devotion to Christ through the Novenas and every day prayer.

I prayed for my son and his wife who are struggling in their marriage and who are nonpracticing Catholics. I wanted that they seek help for marital issues and that she become so aware of the many blessings she has that her heart would be filled with joy and her negative approach to life take a positive turn. They have agreed to go to counsiling and she is showing signs of being a little more positive. Thank you St. Anne ! Continued prayers for continuing progress!
I shall be back here to testify by Sunday of a prayer answered. I shall deliver a bouncing baby boy on Saturday God willing. Join me in thanksgiving already!!!
I am not a practicing catholic as many on this site. We have had a very hard two years and stumbled upon this as i was looking for prayer and hope. The last novena my husband found a job and some light to a situation surfaced regarding our youngest son. Thank you for bringing me closer to a long lost faith.
I’m so grateful to St. Anne. One of my four petitions was answered quickly and wondrously. I think she wanted to encourage another grandmother!! I had a glorious enrichment in the Holy Spirit as a young mother with five little ones 40 years ago with a host of friends. BUT, four of us were especially connected to each other in prayer and encouragement. After five years I moved. I made new friends in prayer communities, but in the past several years, I have been very lonely for real prayer partners to grow with. Before this Novena was over, one of the four from 40 years ago not only got in touch but came to see me and the reunion, short as it was, spurred us to plan a reunion for all of us. I have had three more encounters with old friends ‘in the Spirit’ since then. Richly blessed. Yeah!!! St. Anne. Thank you!
Our marriage is in severe crisis. My spouse has refused to go to a counselor . During this novena he said he will go to a counselor next week. Thank you St. Anne and St. Joachim! And most of all I thank my precious Jesus!
I didn’t even get to start the Novena to Sts. Anne and Joachim. I started on the 4th or 5th day but they gave us a very favorable answer. Our oldest son was able to get a room to live in while he is temporarily stationed in a Navy Base. Like their loving daughter, Mary, Sts. Anne and Joachim take care of our sons!!! Prayers of Thanksgiving!!!
I’m in thanksgiving to St. Anne for my prayers answered. She heard my cry for help.
I prayed the Novena to St Anne – my Father is elderly and sick and we need help with him. I got a phone call on St Anne’s feast day that we for approval for adult daycare for my Father!!!
Thank you St. Anne and St Joachim!!!!
I was praying this Novena to Saint Anne, to help me find a job. I was so blessed, not only did I get a job but I was blessed with a catholic boss and this is just wonderful. I my loves bosses they are wonderful beautiful people. I was so blessed. Thank you Saint Anne thank you.
I have being so confused and not interested in marriage but I prayed this novena and asked God to guide me. I am so interested and excited about getting married. I am in a relationship and still praying I settle with him. May God grant my prayers through St Annes intercession.
Also my sister’s marriage was troubled but God healed and restored love to them.
I am happy. God’s love is amazing. I know I have more testimonies on the way
Every year I go with the Ahearn Memorial Pilgrimages out of New York and Springfield, MA to Ste. Anne de Beaupre in Quebec for the entire novena and feast day. Every year I come to the foot of the statue in the basilica and see all the people kneeling there. No matter what my personal stuff may be it becomes petty by comparison. I wind up including all the intentions of anyone anywhere praying to Stes. Anne, Joachim and their Daughter. Are my prayers answered? Well, just look at the replies so far received. I think, Yes, definitely.
During this Novena I was praying for my Nephew’s college admission. He got the admission in St Andrew’s College which we were praying for.
Thankyou St Anne
I am so grateful to the St. Anne Novena. My prayers were answered for my discernment. As I also went to the St. Anne’s Shrine in Vermont the weekend the Novenas began, this was a sign for me to go and my prayers at that time were answered. GOD IS GOOD, THANK YOU LORD AND BLESSED MOTHER MARY, AND ST. ANNE. AMEN.
My mother’s birthday is the 26th. I have always loved this Feast Day. My daughter had a terrible anaphylaxis reaction.A Grandmother assisted her, the EMT ‘s did an excellent job. She was fassisted by excellent medical care.At the hospital a priest with the gift of healing was the chaplain. He was able to be reached by his parents and a series of about 7 people all the way from out of state. Truly a miracle,
He said “God’s Providence points to a healing!’ Praise God!
We have been trying to sell our home to live closer to family. No contract but tons of movement and interest since starting the St.Anne novena. I can feel its happening! Thank you for all your prayers. Praying for everyone!
I am so happy that I was able to pray this novena to St. Anne. I am still waiting for my prayers to be answered! This novena has given me so much hope & I know my miracle is coming! Thank you so much St Anne, St Jochiam, our mother Mary & our precious Jesus!
I have been praying that the good lord will provide us with money to carry out repairs in our home. My prayer was answered. The good lord provided us the money we need. Thank you Saint Anne & Saint Joachim for your intercession.
My husband is in the oil business and lately he has been laid off. One of my prayer intentions to St. Anne was to help my husband get back to work. Just yesterday my husband told me that he was called back to work and that he has been offered work until the end of August.
Thank you and praise you Jesus. Thank you for interceding to our prayers St. Anne and St Joachim. I pray that my husband will be offered a permanent/long term job.

I was so wanting to do a pilgrimage when we went to visit my husband’s daughter in another state, he said absolutely not, he wanted to drive right down and back, but after praying the Novena to Saint Anne he surprised me and said we would stop at Lady of Guadalupe Shrine and spend the night half way home. It was a great spiritual day! Thank you Saint Anne!!
My husband and I both had doctor’s appt. right after the Novena. Mine were six month appointments to check on previous issues. I asked that all of our appointments would go good and they did. God is good.
For years my son in law an myself were in no speaking terms
while praying to st Ann I requested to make possible to have a chance for the family to get.
back together it surly happened
thanks to the help of St
Ann and our wonderful loving God

This may seem trivial, but last year when we prayed this novena we were planning a High School graduation party for our youngest son.
Our house would not accomodate the number of guests expected. The local forecast predicted 50% chance of rain for the day. I prayed to St. Anne to allow us to celebrate outside. When that following Saturday came… the skies were clear, the sun shone and other than one very short and light shower the celebration was a success complete with kids sitting around the fire. As guests arrived I told them about the prayers and thanked St. Anne out loud to each guest. I meant to send this in last year but got side tracked. Thank You Lord!
To lose the weight I gained from being sick. Then to be reunited and married to the love if my life.
I had two petitions I was praying for to St. Anne. One was for a committed cantor for our 8am Mass on Sundays. I am the organist. On the 7th day I had two candidates for the position. Our Pastor made the decision that day and our new cantor begins this Sunday August 2. Thank you, St. Anne and St Joachim. My second petition might take a little longer to be realized, maybe a few more novenas. But I trust in God’s merciful love with all my heart.
I prayed the novena to St Anne for various intentions: one of which was for God to favour and bless my brother with a dignified employment abroad. Today, he messaged me to say that he has secured a job. Thank you loving Father in heaven! Thank you St Anne and St Joachim
My husband and I have some financial struggles and have tried to sell our piano numerous times over the past 10 years. On the last day of the novena, we received a response to our ad, and the interested party is coming within the next few days to take a look. That has given us hope, and it reminds us that the answers are always on God’s terms….we need to raise up to God all of our petitions! Thank you St.Anne for your intercession and for giving us hope once again!
Shortly after the novena began, my daughter called and asked me to come to San Francisco because she was having some health concerns that were scaring her. This from a girl who has never needed her mother. When I arrived I discovered that the nearest church was St. Anne of the Sunset and they were holding a novena of Masses. My daughter went with me to several of these; she doesn’t usually go to Mass. It has been an important bonding time. Her doctors scheduled all of her tests for while I was here and although we don’t have answers yet, so much has shown me that she is in God’s care. Thank you St. Anne and please continue Emily on the path of spiritual and physical healing. Amen!
During the St Anne novena I prayed for two things.
1 was divine healing because I have had hyperprolatinemia for a year and just about two days to the prayer I received instant healing I even doubted it,but to the glory of God am healed.
2. Was for the choice of a life partner still waiting for the answer to that prayer I believe God that through the intercession of his grand Ma he will answer in due time.
Thank you St.Anne! Last week I received two job offers and I am taking one in a Catholic School that is full time and close to home. I have been looking for full time work for two years.
I prayed for healing for myself as one of my petitions. I had been experiencing back pain for serval years and vertigo for quite a while also. I am happy to say that on the 6th day of praying novena the back pain lessen. I have very little pain that is tolerable and my vertigo also seems to be a lot better. I thank St. Anne and St. Joaquin for interceding for me and allowing this to happen to me.
I am in the process of applying for a new job. There are 9 stages to it. I prayed that I would make the next assessment and the following day I received confirmation I had been selected. I am now on stage 4, and have another on 7th Aug! Praise Jesus x
I was doubtful that I could be a wise mum and wife. My husband just got a better career opportunity in overseas, though it is only 2 hours flight from our hometown. I was worried about the our family circumstances and often blamed my son who is with me. Then the St Anne Novena came to me… And I completed the Novena. I believe st Anne has heard me and will always guide me to be a loving mother and wife.
Thank you Grandma St. Anne. On the 7th day of the novena my dream man walked up to me in a filling station. And we are now friends and believing God for perfections in the relationship. Am so happy cos dis is my first time of doing dis novena. Thank you Trinity & Grandma St.Anne.
After praying Novenas for so long that my son would meet a nice young lady to enter his life that wouldn’t challenge his faith, St. Anne answered my prayers. He is absolutely head over heels for her and she feels the same. In fact, she is intrigued by his commitment to his faith. Who knows what doors St. Anne has opened through this answered prayer. So grateful for the opportunity to pray these beautiful Novenas.
Thank you Saint Anne for answered prayers!
I decided to pray the novena to St. Anne for a job. I lost my job in February after 27 years. I believe I have learning disabilities but was never tested as a child. I never graduated from high school because of it. I am on a waiting list for testing. I applied for 2 jobs last week and receive a call today for an interview from one of them. Please continue to pray for me if this is God’s will for me and my family.
God’s blessing to all of you and your families.
Thank You!!! I prayed the novena and asked for a good (medical) test result and that’s what I received! Thank You St. Anne and Joachim. Thank You, gracious God!
I prayed the Noven to St. Ann for the safe delivery of my grandson, who was due to be born July 22. On July 23 my prayers were answered when my grandson, Luke Robert was delivered safely into this world! God is so Good! Thank you, St. Ann!
Oh boy have I been praying and hard for a year +. My “baby” ok, he’s 36 now has had both hips replaced in just over a year! During that time he’s been without a job (horror and fear), His last hip was performed in July, and PT is almost over. He has shared 3857495748 resumes and no responses. Alas- presenting Travis to St. Anne and her husband ( the rest of their family is WELL known about Travis. I simply thought “why not”? They are parents too Well!!!!!Praise GOD!!! Travis had a driving test today, introduction starts on Friday with UPS>>>>>!!!!! He was a medic but is no longer able to safely lift 300 pounds patients down 4 sets of stairs! Loved the work, but no longer safe. Oh Praise God, and thank you two for sharing avenues to our Lord. Pat
My prayers were answered. My son passed all his classes, he has regained his confidence and is looking forward to his last semester. Thank you for the prayers, Jesus, I trust in You.

I said this novena with the intent of trying to discern the direction of my relatively new relationship, if he would be my future spouse. I was concerned my prayers were unanswered as I was still unsure after the novena ended however a day later he broke it off. It was quite out of the blue. While I’m not necessarily happy right now, I know deep down this was the answer I was intended to receive, even though it wasn’t one I wanted to hear. I’ll keep praying for my future spouse.
My friend’s family was on the brink of been thrown out of their apartment due to a quit notice served by the landlord a while back, and efforts to get another accommodation seemed impossible, the final date of grace was for 31st of this month, I had been praying for something good and on the fifth day into the Novena of Saint Anne, she called to tell me they had finally gotten a place affordable. Thank God!
Over the past few months, my job has been very rocky due to financial instability at the university where I work. This has been very stressful for my wife and me. We have two you kids under the age of 2 1/2. I have been looking for other jobs and was recently offered a couple job opportunities but my wife and I didn’t know if what we should do because it meant that we would need to move to a new city. We have been living in New Orleans for the past 10 years and have settled in well here.
We prayed the St. Anne Novena together and prayed for a clear answer from God. During the Novena, we got our clear answer. We will be moving to Florida in January. We are both excited and sad to leave. My wife is more sad to leave behind our friends and neighbors, especially since she is home full time raising our boys. I’m very excited for my new job opportunity.
I’ve been asking God for many months to show us a clear path and God answered our prayers. I pray that God makes this transition smooth and that my wife will find friends quickly. This difficult transition in life is clearly His Will so I’m sure our move will be blessed.
Thank you St. Anne for giving us the answer we have been praying for.
I am so thankful to St. Anne. I asked in this novena to accept Gods will and be patient, and God tested me I got a strong urine infecction and the flu at the same time and could handled it both without complaining like I used to do it before, I am more patient and not much afraid of He wants from me…I know it, he wants me to trust in him, and I am doing it without being afraid!!
Praise Lord!!!
People of God pray for me please so that God can hear my prayers and to answer my prayers! As am waiting for a decision my son was refused a visa, so I had the rights to appeal, am just waiting to hear from the British Embassy their decision! I know God will answer me but I just need you my fellow Christians to help me!!
Amen
My grandson lacked sufficient funds to cover costs of attending college in the the fall. We had applied for a loan but weren’t sure we would qualify. I asked St Anne’s intercession for a financial blessing. On day 6 of the Novena we got word his loan was granted. Thank you St Anne for hearing my prayers and taking ton your beloved grandson…our Savior Jesus Christ.
