The Order of St. Anne (OSA) is a religious order of Anglican nuns founded in 1910 by Rev. Frederick Cecil Powell, a member of the Society of St. John the Evangelist, and by first member and superior Etheldred Barry (children's book illustrations, whose work includes the famous Little Colonel series on screen by Shirley Temple) in Arlington Heights, Massachusetts.
The Order conducted a school for girls on the Arlington site which later became Germaine Lawrence School, which continues today. Another group of nuns from Arlington founded a community - Bethany - in China, who moved to the Philippines after foreign Christian groups were expelled after the Chinese revolution. The group returned to the United States in the 1970s with some members of the Philippines, and worked first in a school in Lincoln and then moved to a new home on the original Arlington site, adjacent to a small group that remained there and to Germaine Lawrence School. The Bethany Convent continues today's prayer ministry.

Convent of St. Anne in Chicago was founded in the Anglo-Catholic Church of Ascension in 1921 in response to calls from rectors and sanctuaries for the sisters to do missionary work in the parish. The Chicago Monastery is autonomous, called to work in the parish. The sisters worked at the Ascension Church as teachers and counselors.
In 2008, Sister Judith Marie was a Priestess Monastery at a Chicago convent.
