Feast of St. Anne
Our parish feast day of Saint Anne is July 26th
Our parish feast day is Saturday, July 26th. We remember the parents of Mary and the grandparents of Jesus as models of faith and hopefulness. It was the parents of Mary who nurtured her, taught her, and brought her up to be a worthy Mother of God. It was their teaching that brought Mary to say, "Let it be done to me according to your word." It was the faith and example of Anne and Joachim that Mary must have followed as she brought up her own son, Jesus and stood by the cross as he was crucified and still believed. Anne and Joachim are examples and models for all parents and grandparents.
