Please share any answered prayers you experienced during the St. Anne Novena with us all below!
I prayed the Novena for myself as I had absolutely no source for paying my July bills. I also prayed for my son to get a contract he had been pursuing for some time. Two days into the Novena, I got a call to make some presentations at a Management Training program. On the 3rd day I got 2 more offers for August. I never knew St. Anne is so powerful. From now on, I am a devotee and I have started spreading devotion to her, even to Priests! Thank you, St Anne.
Thank God for life because I didn’t have a specific reason but just happy I’m healthy and able to work. Though I feel sad because I miss my parents so much it hurts. They lived a long life in spite of their suffering back when they were young in Mexico. Yet they became U.S. citizens years after and I am proud of them. So they are my hero’s and hopefully I will see them in heaven. Thank you to our Mother Mary and all the angels, saints in heaven. Peace be with us in this world. Pray for us!
My son was working very hard but not seeing the fruits of his labor and it was causing financial stress. My other son needed some direction for his future. At the conclusion of the St. Anne novena, both prayers were answered. Praise be to God.
I prayed the St. Anne Novena, asking for several different petitions. My aunt, who recently had a heart attack, is now back home and recuperating well. My recent cataract surgery was successful and I only need a slight corrective contact lens for one eye, seeing very clearly day to day. Our real estate business has had some positive developments and an increase in listings and sales with the possibility of adding some new agents. God is so good.
I prayed the novena to St Anne and St Joachim and I thank our lord Jesus and Mother Mary in that my husband had a successful eye surgery and our relationship has improved tremendously. Thanks be to God

My prayer was that my novel, A World Such as Heaven Intended, would win the CALA award (Catholic Arts and Letters Award) which was being presented at the Catholic Marketing Network trade show in Chicago on July 28. Praise God my book was the overall winner in the young adult category! My continued prayer is that this work will entertain and encourage people, introduce people to the Catholic faith, and shine a light on wholesome Catholic fiction and Catholic publishing houses including my publisher, Full Quiver Publishing.
This novena has answered 2 of my prayers that I have been praying for for a long time- Peace of mind and being able to enjoy a spiritual atmosphere at work and being able to enjoy spirit filled friends.
My prayers have been answered by St Anne and St Joachim and I am truly grateful and humbled and I will say all the novenas -for the saints are really listening to us if we are sincere.
I praise and thank God for answering my prayers through St Anne and St Joachim.I am currently unemployed and undertook a very expensive trip as part of seeking gainful employment.God saw to my journey and a successful presentation to a very dynamic group of people. Despite my trepidation, I received very good feedback.God is great. Praise and honor to you my Lord,praise to venerable Mother of God and her Mother St Anne.
My sister will be homeless in a month. When I asked my husband if she could live with us, he said no at first. But during the time I was praying the Novena, he told me she could come. I thank my patron St. Anne and her husband for their intersession. I am so glad my husband and I can be united in our decision, especially during this Yesr of Mercy!
My husband got a job after being unemployed for awhile. We were down to our last few dollars, behind on our bills and feeling desperate. The job he got isn’t great pay, but we’re blessed that we have money coming in while he looks for something else. Praise God….now and always!
When you pray for others and you don’t tell them, many times you never find out if any graces where received. I prayed for my friend, a grandmother who changed her entire life, leaving friends and any hopes of a peaceful retirement to take care of her sons 3 boys ages 2, 5 & 8. Their mother is not in their life. She texted me a couple if days ago to tell me that she felt guided and encouraged that the Lord has a special mission for her. I believe St. Anne has interceded!
My prayer was for my parents to be healed from their ailments so they might be active participants in the lives of their grandchildren. While my dad’s health has declined, my sister did announce at the end of the novena that she is pregnant with what will be their first grandchild. I feel this is the beginning to my prayers being answered. I continue to pray for my parents’ health as their granddaughter grows.
St. Anne answered my prayers for good news in relation to my sister’s stage IV lung cancer. The new treatment is effective against her cancer. Thank you for your intercession.
I try not to pray for anything too specific, because God isn’t Santa Claus. So with this novena, I prayed for a way to provide a home for my family– the space we had been living in was way too small, and previous attempts to purchase a house had fallen through. By the time the novena was over, I’d gotten a job offer for salary and benefits, and we were able to put in an offer on a good house for our family! Because I opened my heart, Sts. Anne and Joachim poured in their prayers.
My husband has been hired as a long awaited for job. The answer came when I finished praying the 9th prayer of ST Ann. I walked into the kitchen and the phone rang from the company looking for my husband.
Thank you ST. Ann. for answering our prayers.
During the Novena for St. Anne’s intercession I prayed for my husband to finish his dissertation and get a job teaching at a university. He was offered a job teaching but was still awaiting his dissertation completion. We found out yesterday that his committee agreed to schedule the defense two days prior to the next semester when he will begin teaching! We are moving across the country and will continue praying for St. Anne’s intercession! Thank you!
Thank you St Anne and St Joachim for answering my prayers for the healing of the marriage of our daughter EJ. Now there is love and harmony, forgiveness and joy in their family. I have been a devotee of St Anne since my elementary years, praying to her every Tuesday for a pleasant surprise. She never failed so that up to now, in my 70’s, I still continue this Tuesday devotion.
Thank you St Anne for the thousand pleasant surprises you have given me all these years.
dear st anthony st paul and annie novena thank you for listening my prayers every saturday sunday i am getting order food i will continue prayer it helps me thankyou those who pray for me i love you jesus
I want to say sometimes prayers are answered in many ways and sometimes it’s not what you expect but it’s for the best. My son had to do eye surgery and I pray that it goes successful but instead it was put off, I was disappointed, but now I see it was for the best, the doctor got sick and my whole family got sick so it was for the best. Thank you Jesus and thank you St Anne I know when the time is right it will be done and it would be successful.
I prayed for my mother in law who is a senior suffering in poverty. On the seventh day out of the blue somebody wanted to rent her home. This income will help her out a lot. It is indeed a miracle and I am thankful this payer has been answered. Amen
I have been praying many novenas, but I believe the ones to St. Maria Goretti and St. Anne have been most helpful. I have been praying that my daughter would end a relationship with an abusive, controlling boyfriend. It seems that over the last couple of months that he is no longer talking to her and moved on to another unsuspecting prey (may the saints protect the next one from this seemingly charming, but vile person). I continue to pray for healing for my daughter as she moves on with her life and for a “good Catholic boy” on the horizon! Thank you Saints Maria and Anne!
I prayed this novena to stop fighting with my husband and we are now perfectly good. i thanks God and always will. I pray that He may continue granting us his favour and blessings. Thanks you.. I love you…so much….
I have been praying for a life partner. And have started to think God was not on my side. Days after the Novena. God sent me a message through a friend saying “he has not forsaken me and I should continue to look up to God and I will find my patner” I was so happy and relaxed after getting that message.

I prayed that my surgery would go well this time. I also was praying for our unborn grandson that he would continue to stay in his mother’s womb until now. She has been in bedrest and it has been a difficult pregnancy. Thank you St. Anne for your intersessions.
I thank St Anne for her intercession. It’s been a blessing praying the novena
Thank you God, after praying the novena to St. Anne and St. Joachim – my husband was offered the job that we have been hoping for, for over five years!
I prayed this novena asking St Ann to ask God to cure my husband of his cancer. On Wednesday he got a call from his doctor saying the biopsy came back negative. The cancer is gone! Thank you St. Ann for you gracious assistance. Most of all thank you Lord for hearing and answering my prayers. Amen
My prayers in furtherance of my son’s university education were answered. Praise and thanks be to God! I continue to pray for the remaining things.
Thank you St Anne and St. Joachim!
Praise God!
I have a job offer in South Carolina! Thank you for the job offer!
God is good!
st anne iwant money to finish my house my problem is money
Dear St Ann and Joachim
I wish to thank my heavenly Father for hearing my prayers. After praying the novena, my daughter got an attachment in a certain company and she is hopeful after the attachment she will be employed. Thank you St Ann and Joachim for interceding for me. I am also hopeful that her diabetic case will also be healed. Thank you Jesus.
Praise God! and St.Anne , thank you so much for ur blessings.
I prayed for Saint Ann intervention for my son Peter to get University Admission or any other line of development since he has been staying at home for the past three years after completing his Diploma in IT. Luckily he has received his Uni admission for Telecommunication Engineering in China this Month. I thank God and his saints for this.
After reading the answered prayers from St. Anne’s novena, I was particular struck by AW’s testimony. Like her/him, I haven’t seen the physical manifestation of my prayers but I KNOW God has heard me and that they will surely come to pass. I rejoice with all the saints who shared their testimonies, overwhelmed with joy that God is and will continue to answer our prayers, but most importantly, my faith is stirred! Thank you brothers and sisters for sharing your story. Thank you Lord Jesus for loving us so much. God bless all.
I want to thank God for prayers answered through the intercession of St Anne and Joachim. My son was neglecting his wife and daughter because of gambling. He has changed completely and he is working hard and looking after his family very well. Thank you St Anne and Joachim patrons of families.
I prayed this novena for the health of my daughter and many other things. My daughter’s health has increased considerably. Thank u Jesus.
Thank you St Anne and St Joachim ,Mother Mary,St Joseph through whose intercession Jesus has worked miracle. I was praying for my brother in law to get a job as he lost his job a few months back due to lay off policy. He was hardly getting any interview calls. After I started this novena , he got a few interview calls. And in one of the openings,even though he had a second round of tough interview,he got the job .This is only a miracle and truly Gods blessings. Thank you John-Paul & Annie. God will bless you immensely for putting this novenas together and renewing faith in so many people through the power of prayers

Praise God. I prayed the novena and asked that St. Anne intercede for my forthcoming wedding in terms of support and thereafter I called an uncle of mine to tell him how far I have gone. He responded by giving me an open ended question! What have you done concerning the souvenirs? When I told him am still working on that, he offered to assist me with it. Thank you Jesus and St. Anne for your intercession .
i would to thank St. Anne and St. Joachim for their continued help to me and I know that the requests I put in will be answered in time. I always worry about paying bills as I am on my own and at times, it is difficult to keep going. Thank you also Jesus, Mary and Holy St. Joseph for all your help to me.
Mary
I prayed this novena for loads of things but now am testifying by faith
Because I know Gods words don’t fail so by faith am saying my mum has been completely healed and my sister and I and all those whom I prayed for for the fruit of the womb have conceived.
I have faith and I know it shall come to pass.amen
Praise Jesus and Honour to Mother Mary! I have been praying Novenas with this group but have never posted my breakthroughs.

I have been praying for my sick cousin who had been diagnosed with cancer through the intercession of St. Anne, St. Joachim, Mother Mary and St. Joseph all the tests done are just showing that everything is normal and no trace of cancer any more. Peace also has been a portion of my family. Praise to Jesus and Honour to Mother Mary I thank you for your intercession and for listening to my prayers. Thank you Jesus Praise you Jesus!

On the day that we finished praying the novena to St Anne and beseeching her intercession for my granddaughter to find job, she was able to close a job that she said she really enjoyed. Thank you St Anne, St Joachim and Mama Mary for your kind intercession. Prayers work and the Lord hears the prayers of even sinners like us!!! Glory be to God. Amen!!!
Thank you St Anne for getting my son employment
Thank you St Anne and St Joachim for answering my prayer for my son to find a decent part time job to sustain himself while finishing college. You’ve always been kind to me St Anne and St Joachim.
Dear friends, my husband and I have had a number of early pregnancy losses over the almost ten years of our marriage. We were blessed with a baby boy last year but since then suffered two further losses. We both asked the intercession of St. Anne for a successful and healthy pregnancy and we got our positive test last night. In my being I sense a great difference as if this pregnancy is already so very strong. I thank God, dear St. Anne and Our Blessed Mother for hearing and answering our prayer and we continue in faith that we will have a healthy and successful pregnancy this time.
To God be the glory!
please help me pray for my elder son, he lost his job 3 months ago and ony revealed it to me last week. he is struggling to make ends meet and in a foreign country and me too am still looking for a stable job and financial breakthrough
I know my Novena has been answered but as per usual not in a way I had expected or even asked. My heart has been changed rather than the person I was praying for. Praise God for his goodness and mercy.

My prayers were not immediately answered, but I waited patiently for God’s perfect time. With faith and unceasing prayers, I gave my marriage to the Lord and continually lifted my husband for the cleansing of mind, purification of heart, and deliverance from all sin, evil and temptation, through the Holy Spirit. Last night, my husband officially came back to me (emotionally), that is….After a few months of struggling on my part to have him wholly back to me, I finally heard those three words i’ve been longing for a long time to hear again. He told me he loves me, so tenderly and sincerely I could feel it came from within his heart. But what is more important was when he said he is happy, and I did not ask why anymore, I wouldn’t want to ruin the moment. Now as I promised myself and God, just bring back my husband to me with his whole heart, mind and soul, I will never take him nor anything for granted again, My goal now is to keep him happy, contented and satisfied in our marriage. Thank you Lord, through the intercession of St. Anne, we are finally restored, renewed and rekindled. This time I will take all the best care in the world for my husband and of our marriage. Lastly, I will never, ever stop praying again….
I normally do not post my “answered” prayers because usually, my answers do not come. However, I know that God is answering me in some way. During the St. Anne novena I somehow felt strengthened in my prayerful life – I felt that I should continue praying and not GIVE UP ON GOD. St. Anne and St. Joachim strengthened me and I feel stronger and stronger in my prayers and praising God in the middle of the night. Thanks to Mother Anne, the Blessed Virgin Mary, St. Joseph and the HOLY SPIRIT
My beloved patron St Anne interceded for my prayers to be answered. I prayed for my son’s breakthrough in the treatment of the depression he has suffered for many years, which has hampered any efforts he has made to build a career. On the last day of the Novena, my son, who lives in another country, phoned me to say that he had been accepted at a University to study further and that he has never felt the way he felt, in a long time, since he started taking new medication about 2 weeks ago. On 24 July, I made my vows as a Saint Anne member of the guild, in church. The Holy Spirit filled me and I could not hold my tears back and just wept uncontrollably.
I think I have some answered prayers but I am not sure at the moment. Will see how things will proceed. If as it seems, I will let you know but wish to write confidentially.

I dont normally give testimonies but I know my God always answers my prayers in different ways. My sister in law’s son was ambushed by thugs who wanted to cut his privates for ritual purposes. They drove him to a secluded ZESA Booster where they told him to remove all clothing and climb up to touch live wires. He was electrocuted, burnt and sustained 100% burns but did not die. He was hospitalised. During the St Anne novena I dedicated my prayers to and luckily he is out of hospital and nursing his wounds at home. St Anne I want to thank you for the intervention.
I did St Jude and St Anne novena, I pray for a job and guess what I’m going for an interview on Monday. God is good and always listens to our prayers. Thank you.
Thank you to Saint Anna , I had got a Job , I was looking for a job in an appropriate company , because since I was looking for a job , I was not finding it , but after almost 4 novena , I finally find a Job . And I prayed that I will find Love in my life , I struggling a lot to get someone that will make a family and I asked Saint Anne to intercede for me and I hope that my prayer is already heard . Saint Anne pray for Us .
My husband and I have been trying to conceive or adopt for 3.5 years. We were matched with a birth mom in April, and our adopted son was born July 26, the feast day of Saint Anne and Jochium. Many people have prayed for us and prayed this novena. The timing of his birth could not be more fitting! We are overjoyed and so blessed.
I have been making the’ Pray more novenas’ regularly, ever since its inception.But this time i prayed fervently to St Anne asking her to bless my daughter with a job( as she was unemployed for nearly 20 months).and on the 26th of July the feast of St Anne,she got a job offer, and she joined yesterday.
Thank you St Anne & St Joachim.Thank you Annie & John Paul for praying for us
Thank you St Anne,
I prayed to rent my apartment to tourists over the summer. Tourists are coming and I am having luck. I pray that more come till end of August.
This helps us in our financial needs. I pray that next year I will have more luck in renting my little apartment which I call the Hedgehog house. I gave that name because it is a cosy little apartment.
Thank you for the answered prayer Sts. Anne and Joachim. I prayed for the healing of my grandfather who is sick for a long time now. My grandfather had recovered from his sickness even if the doctor said that his condition is already at a critical stage and there is little chance for him to live.
I was praying for a better house and my prayers were answered.
You know I was raised a catholic but now married to a protestant..I remembered about Novena prayers and joined you in prayer.St.Anne, worked miracles for me.On the 9th Day of Novena, I got an email that will change the rest of my life!! God is Faithful..Am waiting for job confirmation now!!
I prayed that my husband would consider going to a retreat for couples and after praying to St. Anne my husband agreed to go. Please pray that our retreat will be fruitful.
Thanks very much to Almighty Heavenly Father. i was praying for friend of mine in u.s who had blood cancer. he went for Chemo on the day we started Noverna to St Anne .I posted so that everyone one will pray for him.he went for blood test on Monday, he told me that the result are good. May God bless each and everyone who prayed this Novena. Thanks be to God, son,and holy spirit.Thanks to St Anne and Joachim and our mother mary.am waiting for next Novena.
Last December I prayed two novenas, one to Our Lady on the feast of the Immaculate Conception and to St. Peregrine, for my daughter so she can be healed from watting at night, as she was almost eight. At the end of the novena to St.Peregrine my husband bought a monitor to stop bed wetting at night, which I didn’t know until he told me that we should expect a package by mail with the monitor in it. Within two weeks she stoped having accidents at night. Moreover, she never even ones wet the bed again.
Am so glad God saw me through all my difficult times. Was praying for my marriage because we had so many issues with my husband and He truely answered my prayers. Am praying for other marriages out there
God is great…when reciting the novena i prayed that God may protect my job and help me be amongst the staff to be retained as our contract was coming to an end and am very grateful and thankful to God and you all for praying with me and for me because i was retained…
Glory be to God!
I did not have any particular intention while praying the Novena. But any prayer I start I ask for protection for self and my family. I can attribute answer to this prayer because my husband had a miraculous escape to death when a car toppled and landed exactly the place he was standing a minute before, injuring 3 others out of which one succumbed to death.
Thank you Lord for answering my prayers through the intercession of St. Ann. Amen!
Thank you most blessed St. Anne & St Joachim for your intercessions. My husband and I have been parted for months..
We have been communicating now for awhile . My husband wants to make an honest effort to work on our marriage, after not seeing each other for several months…
Praise the Lord.
My husband is working on setting up a specific type of retreat for us.
Thank you so much for your intercessions most Blessed Mother of Our Lady, St. Anne St Joachim.
Amen
Hi everyone.
God be praised all the time. Am pleased to inform you that I prayed st. Ann’s novena so that i can pass all my exams that I have been failing. I did pass one of driving and am still praying and asking st. Anne to intercede for me to pass my cna test.
Thank you all for praying for me.
Praise be to God for ever and ever. I prayed this novena for good progress in my marriage and I could see Lord’s mercy.. Thank you St. Anne for interceding for me.
I was praying for my niece to have a positive relationship with David, the Father of her child. I decided to do a Novena for Veronica. I asked St. Anne & St Joachim, please intercede for Veronica, baby Rosa & David. What a positive attitude between David & his mother! The years of strain between mother and son appears to have melted away. . The child’s grandmother, Sally has made arrangements to have Family Day every Sunday. Praised the Lord…
Baby Rosa’s grandmother is a good moral Catholic person, and I’m really happy that Sally is in Veronica’s life. Sally is extremely supportive towards Veronica and David. Sally goes for walks with Veronica and she also makes herself available to watch baby Rosa while Veronica goes to her medical aopointments.
David lives with his mother, and he makes an honest effort to help Veronica as much as possible. They are making plans now to have baby Rosa baptized. Thank you St. Anne & St Joachim for your intercessions. I know that God answers prayers & may this lovely couple be committed to a blessed wedding when the time is right. Amen
Thank you to St Anne for her intercession for my prayer request.
My son have been granted a bursary for his school fees in university. Half of his tuition fee was granted free.
Also another prayer has been answered for my nephew who has been accepted for his job application to ship cruise.
Greatly amazing help to my family. Amazing blessings from our Lord through the help of St. Anne. Thank you Lord for your kindness and faithfulness. Glory be to God.
My answered prayer has made my faith stronger and my relationship to God more deeper. I am keeping the faith.
Thank you Lord Jesus. Amen

My son and his wife have been struggling in a number of way and their relationship became contentious. I prayed this novena for St. Anne to intercede with our Father to help them come together and be healed. Through this novena, they came separately to my husband and I asking for advice and help. We are so grateful they listened and are now closer than ever. God is GREAT and prayer is the answer. Thank you for supplying these novenas to help me pray better and become closer to God.
I have been praying for over 4 years. Asking for my daughter to conceive and deliver a baby. Last October she asked her father to pray one novena asking for same. She conceived and delivered a beautiful healthy baby girl July 25 at 11:50 pm. Tried to hold out for ten more mins but was not to be. Faustina is truly an answer to our many prayers. Thanks and praise to our Lord Jesus Christ.
I asked for a good solution and end to my lawsuit, and found out during the novena that it would end soon with a good outcome. Thank you, thank you, good St Anne!! I grew up close to your shrine in NE Pennsylvania, and know how good you are and how powerful your intercession is!! I am so lovingly grateful!!
Thank you for all your prayers! I asked our dear St. Anne for financial
assistance as my husband has not been helping me financially with funds for food. My local priest was able to provide funds to me to cover my utitlit costs which will provide me additional monies for food.
God bless each and every one of you and I will continue to pray these wonderful novenas that are provided for us by the generosity of John and Annie!
In faith,
Jennilynn
My husband has been battling depression for a long time and most recently pretty severe. Tried different meds without help. Went to healing mass recently and half way through the novena prayers, i still remember he woke up one morning and exclaimed “I dont feel sad anymore”!!
Praise God. Amen
Thank you dear St Anne and St Joachim
My son has a job and another better job offer, free food and lodging!
Also healing in our marriage and family.
Most grateful to all in heaven and those who have prayed for us! Pax Patricia

Praise God and thank you St. Anne, my first prayer was for my daughter to meet a good young man who would treat her well and be her equal in her spiritual journey. She met someone on the first day of the novena and although it is early days and I continue to pray, I believe St Anne has been instrumental in having the Lord answer my prayers. I also prayed for my son to find employment leading to a career. He has just started a job that is looking very promising. Praise be to God!
Thank you St. Anne for answering my prayer. Amen.
Thank you St. Anne for your Intercession in my faith. I prayed this novena in a dedication to my mother who is ill with eye cancer. My mother has felt the blessing of St. Anne. Thank you
I have been praying all the novenas through the Pray More Novenas site. This time St Anne answered my prayer to heal my mother. She was recommended to get a pacemaker at the age of 79 as her heart was only working at a 30% capacity. After praying the oven to St Anne my mother went in for preparation for her surgery and was found to be not in need of surgery and her heart working at full capacity. This was truly a miracle and one that my sister who cares for her could not believe. The doctors were also wondering why the first doctor had recommended it since after a second opinion there was no immediate need to do so. Our God is an awesome God who works His miracles through saints such as St Anne!
I will start praying for my daughter who has been diagnosed with small fiber neuropathy. I have never prayed to St. Anne and trust that the road ahead will be a journey that gives us a strong belief that all will be ok.
Thank you , to all who have shared their stories,
I was pregnant for another man who rejected me and the pregnancy. Due to that I had been praying for him to change his mind but all to no avail. During the Novena I stopped to pray for others instead of myself on the 5th day. By the end of the Novena I was proposed to by another man even with the pregnancy. Am now engaged and looking forward to a happy wedding. Thank you Jesus.
We have a Coir company at Cherthala, Alappuzha District, Kerala State, India. It was about to be closed last week. I prayed through this novena and also through St. Maria Gorettis novena. Miraculously it didn’t close and is still functioning. Thank you for the powerful intercession of St. Anne & St.Maria Goretti
I don’t know if this is an answer or not but I have been praying for a dear friend of my sister who met with an accident and was in a coma ! The other day my sister wrote to say this lady was sobbing when she talked to her . She is still unconcious but it appeared she hears and is trying to communicate !! This is a blessing I think and prayers to st Anne are so powerful!!
My son and his wife announced that they were getting divorced at the time this novena started so I prayed for their marriage. They have decided that they want to continue working on their marriage and I will continue to pray for them. God is so very good ????????????
I would like to share an amazing story… My husband and I have been trying to conceive for 10 years. We have gone thru over 5 attempts of advanced procedure/IVF..in two different hospitals in my country, and twice in a different country.
My sister in law sent me and another close girl friend a link to the novena group saying it would be good to join it… I said, the timing is perfect as I was about to leave for IVF in another country.. And the novena happens during that period plus my patron saints are Sts Joachim and Anne (hence my name) as I was born on their feast day.
So the three of us made it our special intention for this novena. As we were going thru it, my hubby and I made a side trip to this country’s world heritage site, an hour flight away. As I researched what else we can see there, lo and behold, the largest religious festival this small city has is the Feast of St Anne where thousands of pilgrims come to the oldest and largest St Anne shrine in Asia…. Even if it was 40mins away by cab, we went there to hear mass on a Sunday on the first day of the novena, July 17. The Shrine was beautiful. There was an exposed container of St Anne’s relics at the side and I held my hand on it as I cried my heart to her. Outside the church, there were faucets by the mountain side (like the holy water springs of Lourdes) where people get the water, I got some to take home.
Two days later, we were back in the hospital for the final procedure. Pregnancy blood test can be done after a week on July 26.
And to cut the long story short, for the first time in 10 years and numerous heartbreaking negative results, we got our first positive pregnancy test on July 26. My birthday and the Feast of Sts Joachim and Anne.
I have not made it public to friends in family fearing that until I see a heartbeat, this isnt real. Its hard to believe it because its been 10 long years. St Anne and St Joachim waited 20 years for Mary… How heartbreaking that must be…yet…Mary is the most special of all children. Worth the 20 year wait.
When I was speaking about the amazing coincidence of the times, the place, the situation, my birthday, patrons and namesake… my sis in law said, “God has already planned all of it even before you were born… ”
We shall be back to that Shrine on next year’s feast to present to God and St Anne our answered prayer. I believe that if God had us wait this long, He must have something really special planned for the life of this child. I consecrate this child to Him and Mary.
God is an awesome God. Thank you to all who prayed the novena with us… And thanks to my two special prayer partners…
I have been praying for people who are away from God and recently certain person got a powerful message through a sudden sickness and started praying which she had not done for many years.
I prayed for a safe trip for my parents from Africa to the US and back and my prayers have been answered. I also prayed for healing for a fibriod. Even though I can still feel it there I know God will heal mevin his time. Not my time without surgery.
I was praying the St. Anne for everyone’s intentions to be heard. A few days into the novena an appointment from my doctor met with negative results. I needed to be biopsied for possible cancer. I was distraught and didn’t know where to turn. I kept praying my novena. My husband insisted on a 2nd opinion. We had an appt. on the 26th! Thank you St. Anne, I misdiagnosed and have no trace of cancer whatsoever. Amen! My prayers were definitely answered.
Myhusband has been out of work for months and I have been praying for him to get a good job to help us get back on track. He started his new job today. Thank you!!
I prayed this novena asking for my son to find employment. I am grateful for my prayer being answered. TL
I want to thank St Anne and St Joachim for their intercession to God Our Father. I prayed the novena for my family to move back home and we have. I prayed for my sister’s marriage to be saved and they seem to be getting along better. Thank you for all the blessings still to come.
