Complete prayer
Good Saint Anne, consoler of the afflicted, my heart is heavy with grief on beholding the evil courses of one so dear to me. This beloved soul is dead, dead to God and to Heaven, dead to a happy eternity. Dear good Saint Anne, I rely on thy powerful intercession.
Alas! One day this soul may be buried in the depths of hell, and we can then never have the consolation of being together in Heaven. This terrible thought is present to me day and night, and I weep incessantly when I think of being eternally separated one from another.
Dear Mother Saint Anne, have pity on this beloved soul; remind thy grandson Jesus of how much He has suffered for it, and then certainly He will bring it forth from the depths of indifference and sin. Good Saint Anne, I humbly beseech thee, obtain me this favor. Amen.
