St Anne and St Joachim
"Joachim and Anne, how blessed a couple! All creation is indebted to you. For at your hands the Creator was offered a gift excelling all other gifts: a chaste mother, who alone was worthy of him." – St John Damascene.
My sermon for the feast of SS Joachim and Anne can be read here.
