The Holy & Righteous Ancestors of God, Joachim and Anna


Anna rejoices, released from her barrenness,
and nurses her most pure child.
She calls all people to glorify Him
Who gave the Virgin Mother to mankind from her womb.

Also see the Gladsome Light Dialogues' post on why Joachim and Anna are commemorated at the end of every liturgy.
