Saint Joachim, Father of the Blessed Virgin Mary

Posted by petrus, on August 16th, 2015

Holy Family with Joachim and Anna

Holy Family with st Anne and St Joachim, by a follower of Giovanni Bellini (c. 1430–1516).

O God, who didst choose blessed Joachim from among the company of thy Saints, that of him might be begotten the Mother of thy Son: Grant that we who on his feast day devoutly do him honour, may ever be assisted by his fatherly protection; through the same thy Son Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
