St. Anthony of Padua Comments
Saint Anthony was canonized (declared a saint) less than one year after his death. There is perhaps no more loved and admired saint in the Catholic Church than Saint Anthony of Padua, a Doctor of the Church. Though his work was in Italy, he was born in Portugal. He first joined the Augustinian Order and then left it and joined the Franciscan Order in 1221, when he was 26 years old. The reason he became a Franciscan was because of the death of ...

Dearest Saint Anthony,
I pray for your intercession for all of us who suffer or know of someone who suffers from addictions (ciggarettes, alcohol, pills, drugs, etc.). Please ask our Lord Jesus to bless us with his mercy and grace. Beg for Him to grant us the power to overcome the power of Satan in our lives. I pray specifically for Marissa, Larry and myself. Set us free from the hunter's snare oh Lord. Draw us closest to you. May we bask in your glory, set us free. Unite us in faith, hope, unconditional love and respect. Grant us joy, peace and love for one another, but most of all...use this to bring us closer to our savior Jesus Christ. In the unity of His Holy Spirit, one body. I beg on behalf of all of us to you, all the angel and saints, and to our precious Lord Jesus. Peace, Stephanie PS: More importantly bless all of the little children who are innocent, and must live with and witness their parent's addiction. Hold them, guide them and protect them!
Wish you all a happy feast as I am writing this comment on the 13th June, since it's St.Anthony's Feast. As I am a firm believer of our Lord Jesus Christ, but for St. Anthony I have a special devotion, a great listener of poor people. Once I was in a deep trouble, and I sought St. Anthony's help and immediately my petition was granted. Thanks St. Anthony for the gracious help from the bottom of my heart. Faithfully yours in Christ. (D.Paul John)

Blessed St. Anthony
I request your blessings for my son Jayant in his hour of need. He is an young graduate struggling to find a job for an year or so without success. The more he has to wait for a break to come through the more he is getting dissappointed. I pray for your mercy on this child and let a miracle through your intercession happen now. He needs a door to be opened for him. Please help and we will be eternally grateful for your kindness.
