Fun Fact

Although not referenced in the bible, Anne and Joachim are traditionally known as the Blessed Virgin Mary's parents. Aside from being Jesus' grandparents, there isn't much else recorded. What can be true is that they saw Jesus at a young age. They played with him and washed him. They saw him take his first steps.

Prayer

Saints Anne and Joachim, intercede to the Holy Ghost that all grandparents may be blessed with good health, lots of laughter, and meaningful playtime with their grandkiddies.
