16th Week of Ordinary Time C – Saturday – Saints Joachim and Anne
Dear brothers and sisters in Christ, peace be with you. Today, as we gather to celebrate the Memorial of Saints Joachim and Anne, the parents of the Blessed Virgin Mary and the grandparents of our Lord Jesus Christ, we are invited to reflect on the quiet power of faithfulness—on the grace that often moves silently, invisibly, but no less powerfully in the lives of those who love and follow God.
