Complete prayer
O good and merciful Saint Anne, I purpose to serve thee with singular devotion; to consecrate myself to thy service, and to gain the hearts of others to thy veneration and to that confidence in thee which thou dost merit. I choose thee, after the Blessed Virgin, as my spiritual mother and protectress before God; I consecrate myself to serving thee faithfully. To thee I confide my body, my soul, all my spiritual and temporal interests, as well as those of my family. To thee I consecrate my mind that in all things it may be enlightened by faith; my heart, that thou mayest keep it pure and filled with love for Jesus, Mary, Joseph and thyself; my will, that like thine, it may always be in union with the will of God. Obtain for me, O powerful Saint Anne, victory over my passions, avoidance of all occasions of sin, the grace of never offending God, of fulfilling the duties of my state of life, and of exercising all those virtues which are needful for my salvation.
Like thee, may I be all God's in life and in death; and after having loved and honored thee on earth, beloved good Saint Anne, like a truly faithful and devoted child, may I one day be admitted to glorify thee in heaven, with the angels and the saints. Amen.
