A gentleman from Sherbrooke came to the Shrine in February 2008. In 1980, he came on a pilgrimage to Saint Anne de Beaupré, when his situation was less than desireable. He worked in an office, but due to regular harassment at work, he was in a state of depression; he had even left his job for several weeks. He decided to come see Good Saint Anne at her Shrine. He made the trip from Sherbrooke to Saint Anne de Beaupré under a dark and cloudy sky. When he saw the Basilica on the boulevard, there was suddenly a bright light shining between the two bell towers; it gave him a kind of shock and a sign of hope. He spent the day at Saint Anne de Beaupré. The next morning, back in Sherbrooke, we received a phone call. He was offered a new job. He worked for 28 years in the same position and when it came time for him to retire he returned to thank Good Saint Anne.

A couple from Macamic, Quebec went to the Saint Anne de Beaupré Shrine to plead with Saint Anne for a favour that they may have children. Leaving the Shrine, the young woman said to Good Saint Anne: “Will I have children some day?” At that moment, she saw a rainbow over the Saint Lawerence River and then another one appeared above the first one. “It’s a sign of the Covenant… with God’s help, we will be able to have children and we will have two.” Two years later, "I went to Medjugorje… as if Grandmother Saint Anne had invited me to meet her daughter.” Three years later, “after thirteen years of marriage I became pregnant on the eve of the Feast of the Immaculate Conception and our daughter was born on September 8, the Feast of the Nativity of Mary. We then had another daughter… We hope to return to the Shrine, along with our two girls.”

A lady from Toronto sent her mother’s wedding ring as an ex-voto to the Shrine. A long time ago, she was afflicted by a terrible disease, considered incurable by doctors. She had been treated by specialists in New York, but in vain. It was a kind of eczema but of the worst kind. She could peel off the skin from her arms and it was excruciatingly painful. She was unable to dress herself because of this disease. She made a pilgrimage to Saint Anne de Beaupré, with Father Ambroise Maillet, parish priest of Salmon River, Nova Scotia. When she arrived at Saint Anne she used a pink coloured ointment. As she used it, it became clear so she discarded it, thinking that it would do her more harm. But from that moment she began to feel better. The cure was not instantaneous, but after some time, the eczema completely disappeared and never returned. "I was only a baby at the time, but Father Maillet told me again and again that my mother was healed by Good Saint Anne. She had told him that she wanted to send her wedding ring to Saint Anne de Beaupré in recognition of her recovery. She kept it with her for the rest of her life, since she wanted to be sure that her eczema did not recur. She lived to be over 100 years old and was never inconvenienced by it again. I have her ring and I sent it as a n ex-voto. I regret a little that my mother did not send it before. I know that my mother would want me to send her wedding ring to Saint Anne de Beaupré.

A gentleman from Winnipeg had an “all black” foot. The doctor had told him that he would have to amputate the foot if the disease continued. He had friends in Quebec and they sent him a bottle of Saint Anne's oil, with a special prayer to be recited daily. Every evening he put the oil on his foot and it returned to good health. He returned to his work in the construction business.

A lady from Loretteville, Quebec had been married for 10 years and the couple had no children. She came on a pilgrimage to Saint Anne de Beaupré. She celebrated the Sacrament of Reconciliation. She spoke to the priest of her desire to have a child. He suggested to her to go to the Blessings Office and ask for a special blessing. Ten days later she was pregnant.
