St. Anne, Patron of
Grandmothers; Patron of Women Hoping to Become Pregnant
Information about Anne comes from the apocryphal Gospel of James. That
text relates that Anne and her husband, Joachim, were childless late
into their lives, though they both desperately wanted a child. In
desperation, Joachim went into the desert to fast and pray for a child.
At home, Anne bewailed her fate until one day, with Joachim in the
desert, she looked up to see an angel descending to tell her that she
would conceive a child who would become famous throughout the world. At
that same moment, Joachim, the story says, received the same vision in
the desert. He rushed back toward the city to find Anne waiting for him
at the city gate. Soon thereafter, Anne became pregnant and later gave
birth to Mary, the mother of Jesus. Anne is the patron of grandmothers
because she was the grandmother of Jesus of Nazareth. She is the patron
of women hoping to become pregnant because her long patience was
rewarded. The shell above Anne’s head is an ancient symbol of listening
patiently for the word of God. The book in her hand represents the Old
Testament, where Anne found the story of Hannah, a hopeful story much
like her own. Dimensions: 10 (h) x 5 (w) x 1
(d) inches

Chicken Soup for the
Expectant Mother's Soul
Every year, millions of women wait with anticipation as they watch their
test strip change from white to pink, thus beginning the awesome adventure
of becoming a mother. This latest "Chicken Soup" book will find a place in
the loving hearts and anxious minds of expectant mothers (and some fathers,
too!). Written by expectant mothers, veteran moms and fathers-to-be, these
stories relate the physical, emotional and spiritual joys and challenges of
each stage of motherhood, from "barely showing" to the awkward last months,
from labor and delivery to watching and caring for Baby. Some stories offer
hope when the pregnancy isn't medically perfect; others offer light-hearted
humor to cope with weight gain, morning sickness and other pregnancy woes;
and still others offer words of wisdom for the seemingly daunting
responsibilities of choosing a name, going through labor and bringing a new
life into the world. By relaying the insecurities and triumphs of a variety
of moms and moms-to-be-including multiple births, premature births,
adoptions, and single-parent families-this book will tug at the heartstrings
and ease the fears of any expectant mother, regardless of her situation.
Chapters include: Special Moments, Delivery Day, Challenges, On Adoption,
Advice from Others, For Expectant Fathers and The First Few Years. "Chicken
Soup for the Expectant Mother's Soul" will be a must-have on every
baby-shower gift list, and an essential requirement for every birthing bag.

Patron of Expectant
Mothers
Gerard was falsely accused of being the
father of a pregnant woman’s child, and he maintained a role of silence
on the issue. When the woman cleared him of the charges, he was made the
patron of all things in association with pregnancy. |
