"Saints Joachim and Anne were part of a long chain of people who had transmitted their faith and love for God, expressed in the warmth and love of family life, down to Mary..."  - Pope Francis   Though not mentioned in the Bible, Saints Joachim and Anne are revered as the parents of the Blessed Virgin Mary and grandparents of Jesus.  On this month's episode of Talking Saints, Pete and Laurie share what tradition has passed down to us about this holy couple, who built a strong foundation of faith as quiet players in the story of salvation.
