  1. I have prayed for relief of financial burdens, the burdens are still there but a few windfalls have manifested making the burden lighter! God is good!

  2. I just wanted to share my miracle after joining this novena prayer group. I am a breast cancer survivor, Stage IIIA (involving 6 of 8 lymph nodes), went through chemo and radiation. I finished my treatment last July and have followed up with a PET scans and CAT scans of my chest because the PET scans always recommended to do so because of a spot on my lung that wasn’t real clear of what it was. I’ve been doing this since last year every 3-6 months. Today I had my most recent CT scan of the chest and the report read that the spot that was seen previously was no longer there! 🙌🏽 I immediately praised God because by his precious blood I was healed. Praise be to God, the Virgin Mary and to all his angels and saints!! AMEN

I pray for my younger daughter to be healthy, to get the position she has applied for, to be blessed with a baby soon and to have a very good family. I pray for my nephews to be healthy, to have good jobs and good wives and children of their own. I pray for G to heal completely from all his addictions and turn his life for the better. I pray for my sister to be healthy, to keep her job and to have peace and quiet at home.

  8. Where do I start, as a small child, my mom took me to Novenas every Monday night. I must admit all those many years ago, I loved having dessert at one of the other participants homes most Monday nights. Still, from early on, I learned that Novenas gave me a peace beyond my understanding. They still do, thank you John Paul and Annie, I look forward to each and every Novena and have sent a small gift of gratitude. I so want you to be able to continue with your ministry. I am only one of the many that benefit from this wonderful peaceful time out of my day! ❤️🙏🏼❤️

Although my intentions for this novena was not answered yet but I will continue on praying unceasingly and trust God for His will for me. Thank you, O’ Lord for all my blessings I received from you especially the ones I did not asked for, which you generously gave me!

  11. Not from this novena necessarily but from some prayed in the past, I asked for healing for my husband (suffering from Stage 4 kidney disease) or for a kidney transplant for him. On June 13, he was blessed with his transplant. Sadly, some kind donor lost his or her life to provide it, so I pray for that person and his/her family in their time of loss. We have had ups and downs since the transplant, but the kidney functions well and healing is taking place. Thank you!

  20. My daughter is getting married! The love of her life is asking her to marry him this weekend. Thank you St Anne. Please bless them with a faithful, loving, enduring and fun marriage.

  21. Had been a horrid a-hole to a goddess, healer, medicine woman and mystic. She asked me for no contact. I have it to her for weeks and I am pretty sure we are unfriended at Facebook. Today on her photo timeline I saw a birthday pic of mine with her and one of me with the five bambinos, carving pumkins. I have no idea why I am still on her timeline, for I am utterly, totally, abso-fucking-lutely underserving as hell for her to even run over with her van as human road kill. I started to tear up, have a moment, but realized she is not an avid Facebooker and that my lingering presence on her photo-timeline is more than likely pure, unadulterated oversight. A clerical boo-boo. Still my heart is full of her family, its treasures, being both, for a brief bit, both known and loved. Wow. That had never happened to me before or since. And she held kindly me, at times, with physical frame and spirit, unspeakably sweet care. Thank you, St. Anne!!!

  22. I started this novena with my stepson in mind. He hasn’t been able to find work in over a year but today he got hired and started working this evening. Thank you St. Anne.

  23. Hopefully, all of our prayers have been answered. i know that all of mine have been answered so far.

  24. I have Pancreatic cancer which spread to my liver. Monday I had a CT scan and it showed the cancer gone from my liver, and everything is now stable. I want to thank St. Anne for helping me, and also everyone’s prayers. They are working.

  25. My prayers has been answered for my daughter and spouse to reconcile their difference for my grandchildren. Now I pray for their union to become one.

  26. The MINUTE I finished praying Day 9 of the St. Anne novena today, I received an invitation to interview at a medical school—best news that has lifted a huge weight off my shoulders!

  27. Holy Saint Anne, I am praying on your intercession…I so desperately need help me overcome my anxiety, my troubled marriage and I need a financial breakthrough.. I am suffering in mind.. Help my daughter from evil, harm or bullying keep her free from anxiety or stress. As she starts 5th grade this new school year. In your grandson Jesus’ name hear my pleas. Amen

  28. I received an email from a High School Head Volleyball Coach, asking if I was still interested in being an Assistant High School Volleyball Coach. I told her yes & now I have an interview on August 1st at 11:00 AM CST.

  52. St. Pio,
    Thank you for sending me the money I needed. Forgive me for my poor judgment in how I used it. Please resend the money as I will not make the same mistake twice.

  53. Thank you for prayers answered. I have started a Temp Job with hopes of this leading to permanent employment. Thank You for Prayers Answered.

  54. I pray in the quiet of heart for all those who must find work. I feel when I am mindful of the Blessed Mothers great love and sufferings, what it is to be immaculate in a world of flesh and sin, it gives me pause, her sacrifices, her endurance and perseverance. She did not stop being the mother of Christ. She must have wept and prayed as I do, as I am a mother also. My son is forty, he was about to lose his job. His company is relocating across the United states. There was much to think about. What happened after weeks of not knowing what he would do, to start over, something unimaginable happened. A job came to him. The same situation happened to my husband years earlier. With God all things are possible.

  55. After an extended illness a friend’s employer cancelled his health insurance. My prayer was for his healing and reinstatement of his insurance. On Day 7, the request was granted!

  56. I have been pretty much homebound for nine months due to an infection and other issues with hip replacement. After seven surgeries in seven months, I received excellent blood results from a blood test yesterday, just as we were nearing the end of our novena to St. Anne. Praise God and all the saints. FYI. . . Back in 1920 in Italy, my grandmother lost her first three babies. She prayed to St. Anne and promised that if she had a healthy daughter, she would name her Anne (Annina). My Mamma Mia Annina lived to within months of her 95th birthday. Blessings to everyone praying these novenas.

  59. Prayers answered for my mom to be taken care of while i am out of town. Thank you for your prayers St. Anne. May your Virgin Daughter and Grandson keep us close.

  60. May our Dear Lord continue his Blessings on my family, I pray for my son who seems lonely no friends around everyone seems too busy, May he be Bless with a permanent job so he will have more confidence.Give me the strength so I may heal from my surgery and return to work, open the hearts of my brothers and sisters and lead them in the right direction. Amen

  61. Thank you so much. This month has been a great month for me, since I started the 30 days St Anne retreat. St Anne is my favourite saint because of how strong she was. Despite all the challenges she faced she never lost her faith in God. After so many years, I’m enjoying peace and happiness in my life. I have been praying for car and guess what, I will be driving it in a few days. I have been praying for my family, for good health and for protection from all evil , and all that has been taken care of. I have been also praying for a good partner, a husband and I’m still waiting patiently for him. Thank you for your prayers. Thank you so much

  62. I prayed that my grandson would forgive his dad whom he hadn’t seen in 2 and a half years. He forgave his dad and let him see his grandkids again, one whom he had never got to see since she wE. Was less than two years old. Thank you very much st Anne for this favor.

  63. It’s with great joy I share my answered prayer for this novena… My granddaughter was born the day after my husband passed away it was a roller coaster of emotion I call her my circle of life girl… My daughter today heard that the baby in her womb so far so good at 13 weeks is doing well. So my granddaughter is going to have a little buddy with continued prayers of our Blessed mother And her mother and all the angels and saints who continue to watch over us each and every day.

  64. I’ve been praying for the broken hearted. Two friends and myself to find peace in our hearts after the death of a loved one. Today peace is finally coming, the spear that tore my heart is finally healing after 4 months of crying. The other two ladies are finally feeling the peace only God can provide.

  65. Well I prayed for peace in my family and I suppose a very small part was answered when our youngest son called his niece and wished her congratulation on the birth of her baby. However, there is a lot more animosity happening between two brothers, a son and his son.

  66. Got what seems to be a good car deal for my daughter. A big relief to be able to check off 1 of the big, scary things on my to-do list since the accident has taken my husband’s decision-making capacity away from our family. Thank you, St. Anne, for your intercession in this matter.

I have been praying every novena for years. I have always included my son & daughter-in-law since they have experienced fertility problems for 5 years. I truly believe God answers our prayers. His time is not our time; but He does answer. Thank you, St. Anne, for your intervention. This will always be my favorite novena! I praise God in all things. Never stop praying.

  69. I prayed for guidance regarding the romantic feelings I have for a friend/ex-boyfriend — that I might understand if God wants me to let these feelings go, or if praying for the renewal of the relationship would be within God’s will. The answer I received was, unfortunately, not the one I wanted to hear…but I know God wants what is best for me, so I choose to trust Him regardless.

  70. Just yerstday I was talking to my friend Bea who told me that she want to apply fo a job but some people decouraged her. We agreed that she goes ahead because Jesus is only the One who give us jobs.
    And today when I looked at the today’s prayer, I was surprised. It was like a sign that Jesus will give the job to my friend and I bilieve that it will be like that!
    Thank you Saint Ann for your intercession. thank you Mother Mary and before all a big THANK to my Jesus!

  71. In thanksgiving my husband has been offered a job and happily accepted this job. Hopefully it will be less stressful so he can once again enjoy his family and friends. Also my daughter has been to mass every weekend since so moved out of state.

My prayer was answered and the high dose of antibiotic was able to not only prevent the spread, but heal me by the end of the novena. I have another request that I placed in her care. As soon as the result is out, I will share with my sisters and brothers in Christ. St. Anne, pray for us.
