LISTEN | Morning Prayer - July 26, 2023 | Memorial of Sts. Joachim and Anne, Parents of the Blessed Virgin Mary "How wonderful is God among his saints: come, let us adore him." - Invitatory antiphon
Today is the Memorial of Saints Joachim and Anne, the parents of the Blessed Virgin Mary, also the grandparents of Jesus. It was in the home of Saints Joachim and Anne where the Virgin Mary received her training to be the Mother of God. Thus, devotion to Anne and Joachim is an extension of the affection Christians have always professed toward our Blessed Mother. We, too, owe a debt of gratitude to our parents for their help in our Christian formation. The Church invokes this saintly couple as the patron of grandparents.
Sts. Joachim and Anne, pray for us!
