Prayer to St. Anne:
Glorious and holy St. Anne, whom the Heavens admire, whom the Saints honor, and the earth reveres. The just, the penitent, and the sinner consider you as their powerful advocate before God, for by your intercession the just hope for an increase of grace, the penitent for their justification, the sinners for the remission of their sins. Be, then, kind and generous to me. Pray for me in Heaven. Use in my favor the great influence you have before God, particularly for (here make your request). Obtain my request and grant that I may live always close to God.
Good St. Anne, mother of her who is our life, our sweetness and our hope, pray to her for me and obtain my request. OUR FATHER, HAIL MARY, GLORY BE
