Shrine of Sainte-Anne-de-Beaupré


Talk of shrines led to longings for some readers and wonderful memories for others, so here is the beautiful site for Sainte-Anne-de-Beaupré, which will celebrate its 350th Anniversary in 2008. Stop by, take a tour, linger awhile.




Prayer of the Year at Ste. Anne's:

Grant Us Peace In Our Day

O Good Saint Anne, grandmother of the “Prince of Peace”, we come to you in prayer. We offer you our world, our families, and ourselves. Men, women, and children of this world are longing to live in peace. Many are innocent victims of division, violence, and hate. In communion with you and your daughter Mary, we turn to your grandson, the Lord Jesus. We implore him to place his Spirit in the hearts of all people. May the Lord grant us peace in our day. O Good Saint Anne, through your intercession, may we all be “peacemakers”.
