26 July: St. Joachim and Anna
Today is the feast of Sts. Joachim and Anna, the parents of the Blessed Virgin Mary.
Since I am at the time of this writing up on the North Shore of Lake Superior and connecting through my cellphone, suffice for the moment the entry from the Martyrologium Romanum.
Memoria sanctorum Ioachim et Annae, parentum immaculatae Virginis Dei Genetricis Mariae, quorum nomina ab antiquis traditionibus christianorum ex Iudaeis servata sunt.I have in the chapel back at "The Sabine Farm" relics of both Joachim and Anna. I will post a photo of them when I get back there, shoot one, and get it uploaded.
