Novena Prayer to Ste-Anne O Good St. Anne, you are a woman of incredible faith. In your life, you always trusted in God and received the strength that you needed. So, I come before you today to ask for your intercession. When I am afraid, help me to trust in the Lord. He invites me to fear not, but to have faith, and to venture with him into the deep confident of the help of His grace and love.
Dear Grandmother St. Anne, you remind me that all things are possible with God. So, I place myself in your arms and commend to your loving care my family members, loved ones, and all of those who I care about. May God’s grace help me conquer my fears and grow in my faith every day. Amen.
Prière pour la neuvaine à Ste-Anne Ô bonne sainte Anne, tu es une femme d’une foi incroyable. Tout au long de ta vie, tu as toujours donné ta confiance à Dieu et reçu la force dont tu avais besoin. Alors, je me présente aujourd’hui devant toi afin de demander ton intercession. Quand la peur m’habite, aide-moi à faire confiance au Seigneur. Il m’invite à avancer au large, à ne pas avoir peur et avec foi, m’engager avec lui, dans une profonde confiance en l’aide de sa grâce et de son amour.
Chère grand-maman sainte Anne, tu me rappelles que tout est possible avec Dieu. Alors, je recommande à tes soins affectueux les membres de ma famille, les personnes que j’aime et tous ceux dont je me préoccupe. Que la grâce de Dieu m’aide chaque jour à vaincre mes peurs et à grandir dans ma foi. Amen.
