BRIEF STORY OF ST ANTHONY'S LIFE
ST. ANTHONY BLESSES THE CITY OF PADUA
What Assisi was for St. Francis, Padua became for St. Anthony. As a realist, he saw the great problems of secularism and violence corrupting this beautiful city. His final preaching and negotiating would labor for Padua's radical reform - its call to holiness. His evangelization efforts would succeed in winning for Padua the mercy of God.
St. Anthony of Padua, pray for us.

GOD THE CREATOR (FATHER)
"In the beginning, when God created the universe"
MEDITATION
“And so the whole universe was completed. By the seventh day, God finished what He had been doing and stopped working.

O my God, I believe, I adore, I hope, I love Thee! I ask pardon for those who do not believe, nor adore, nor hope, nor love Thee.
O Most Holy Trinity, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, I adore Thee profoundly! I offer Thee the Most Precious Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of our Lord Jesus Christ, Present in all the Tabernacles of the world, for the outrages, sacrileges, and indifference committed against Thee in which He Himself is offended. Amen.
