The Archconfraternity of Saint Anne

The Archconfraternity of St. Anne de Beaupré, erected in the Basilica of St. Anne de Beaupré, Quebec, Canada, on April 26, 1887, has since made gigantic progress and has been enriched with many indulgences.

     Its object is to glorify St. Anne by rendering her veneration more universal and more practical; to extend to a greater number of souls those marvelous graces God has been pleased to bestow on her devout clients; to procure for the faithful, and more especially for poor sinners, for the sick, infirm and dying, the precious privilege of sharing in the immense union of prayers to St. Anne and in the Masses offered in her honor; to promote better Christian living.

     In order to become a member of the Archconfraternity it is only necessary to be enrolled in the register of members, either at St. Anne de Beaupré or in any church in which the association may have been erected. If possible, personal presence is desirable, but in case of impossibility, registration may be made by letter.

     Full information regarding pious practices observed by members, indulgences to be gained, etc. can be obtained from the Archconfraternity located at:
    Shrine of St. Anne de Beaupré
     10018 Royale Ave.
    St. Anne de Beaupré, P.Q. G0A 3C0
