Prayer To St Anthony Of Padua

Prayer to Saint Anthony of Padua
Glorious Saint Anthony of Padua, you renounced every earthly ambition when yet very young.
You gave yourself wholly and perpetually to God’s service. Hence, I beg of you to secure for me
the means to respond readily to Gods purpose for me. Grant me the favor I now seek if it is
God’s will. Please do not forget the prayers and merits of our missionaries, and the many needs
of their people.

St. Anthony of Padua is one of the Catholic Church’s most popular saints. Saint Anthony of Padua, patron saint of lost and stolen articles, was a powerful Franciscan preacher and teacher. He’s typically portrayed holding the child Jesus—or a lily—or a book—or all three—in his arms. Many people give alms to St. Anthony Bread in thanksgiving to God for blessings received through the prayers of St. Anthony.

St. Anthony of Padua’s life is what every Christian’s life is meant to be; a steady courage to face the ups and downs of life, the call to love and forgive, to be concerned for the needs of others, to deal with crisis great and small, and to have our feet solidly on the ground of total trusting love and dependence on God.

St Anthony is beloved throughout the world and is responsive to all people and all needs. His intercessory powers before our God are awesome.
