Anne means "Grace" & "Mercy"
This is the prayer to St. Anne above my kitchen sink.
Good Saint Anne, obtain for me an increase of faith in the great mystery of the Holy Eucharist.
Help me to see in the great Sacrament, Christ our High Priest, making real for me the saving grace of His death on the cross; feeding my soul with His Flesh and Blood so that I may live in Him and He in me; producing the unity of the people of God and gathering His Church together.
By your powerful intercession with God, help me to center my life around the altar that I may inherit the promise of The Lord: "He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood, has life everlasting."
Amen.
