Sts. Joachim & Ann

Parents of Mary, Mother of Jesus

 

St. Joachim and St. Ann were Mary's parents. They loved God very much, and they taught little Mary their strong faith. They trusted in God's special plan of love for their family, no matter what. This made it possible for God to carry out the most amazing plan of love!

God asked Mary to become the mother of Jesus, his Son. How could this be possible? Mary was not sure, but she had learned from her parents to trust God's word. St. Joachim and St. Ann had taught Mary to love God's plan by talking with God in her heart. They had taught her to pray! Mary said "YES!" to God's plan right away. She became the mother of JESUS!

 St. Joachim and St. Ann, help me to love God's plan by obeying my parents right away!
