“On February 14, 1907, in the middle of the night, fire engulfed in the Church of St-Aimé, near Sorel, Quebec. The flames reached the roof of the neighbouring convent. Sister St-Zéphyrin, the principal, evacuated the 130 students. The older students and the nuns watched the church burn and prayed for the threatened convent. The parishioners and friends offered to remove the most precious objects. “Don’t do anything, I am against it… SAINT ANNE WILL NOT LET HER HOUSE BURN DOWN.” She ran to find a statue of Good Saint Anne. She placed it in the hands of one of the young nuns. “Place it between the church and the convent. Be careful, I entrust it to you.” Sister St-Zéphyrin wase inspired and shouted out: “Saint Anne, AT LEAST SAVE YOUR HOUSE." The onlookers repeated this vibrant invocation one hundred times. Answering the repeated pleas, Saint Anne answered their prayers and granted a miracle. From the four corners of the roof, the flames retreated to rest in the centreof the roof, forming a high column of light that swayed from left to right for 15 minutes, then it detached itself from the roof and flew up into the sky. "A MIRACLE! A MIRACLE! LONG LIVE SAINT ANNE! “, the crowd shouted deliriously. In the morning, nuns, students and friends entered the chapel to celebrate a thanksgiving Mass. To show her gratitude to the holy miracle-worker, Mother Superior, despite numerous obstacles, undertook the project of rebuilding the vast and pious chapel of which St-Aimé now boasts. (Recitation of the Sisters of the Presentation). On February 14, 2007, a high Mass with honoraries provided by a citizen of Sorel-Tracy, was celebrated in the Saint Anne de Beaupré Basilica.

A lady from Quebec City had great pain in her spine since 1996. During the Novena at Saint Anne, she participated in the candlelight procession and venerated the relic. Before coming to Saint Anne, she could not bend because of her painful spine, let alone lift the smallest weight. She is now relieved from all her pain. [ Revue Sainte-Anne April 2007, p. 167]

Two days after being born, the nurse noted that Jeremy had cardiac arrhythmia. After three days, the doctor referred his case to the Fleurimont Sherbrooke University Hospital. The cardiologist had him transferred to intensive care. “Never saw anything like this”, he said, “245 beats per minute.” It was only 16 days later that we could bring him home. After six months we could reduce his medication and his heart was beating slower. After a series of tests, the doctor found that his heart seemed to have gone back to normal. “It’s a miracle! “, he told us with amazement. Without wanting to confirm anything, we fully believed that our confidence and constant prayers were answered. Today, at two years old, Jeremy is in perfect health.” (Lady from Roxton Falls) [ Revue Sainte-Anne, October 2007, p. 407]

“On August 12, 2006, my son Danny, 22 years old, was working on his car. The car began to roll backwards; he was behind it and wanted to stop it. It completely crushed his right hand; the bones were exposed, all that was holding his hand together was the artery and the mere skin on his arm. He was rushed by ambulance to the hospital in Miramichi, two hours from where we lived. Dr. Lanous, who treated him, had never seen anything like it in his 20 years of experience as a doctor. He operated Saturday evening not knowing if he would be able to save his hand. For 11 days, my son took antibiotics and other medicines to prevent infection. He had to be operate on again in September since there was a broken bone that the doctor did not want to take a chance on it during the first operation. It had been decided not to touch this bone to avoid losing the hand. Today, nearly six months later, Danny’s hand has been saved. With all our prayers and Danny’s determination, we have succeeded. His hand has been 80% restored and it is continuing to improve. On January 22, 2007, we had an another appointment with Dr. Lanous and he could not believe the condition of my son's hand. “Miracles exist, I am convinced, because this is a miracle.” Thank you, Good Saint Anne. (Val d'Amour, New Brunswick) [Revue Sainte-Anne, September 2007, p. 340]

A lady from Pineville, New Brunswick, wrote at the beginning of June 2007. “Saint Anne is always with me. I have cancer. When I went to hospital the first time for a medical exam to see if my cancer was clearing up. I was very upset. My sister accompanied me and said, “Stay calm”, but I could not relax. I then saw Saint Anne appear on the wall and I calmed down; I told myself that all would be well. I told my sister about what I had seen and she thought I was crazy. The doctor came in smiling, “The cancer is almost all gone". Thank you, Saint Anne.”
