St. Anthony of Padua (June 13th)

In this short episode, I use the occasion of the June 13th Feast of St. Anthony to dive into the life of this Augustinian-turned-Franciscan who was renowned across Europe for his teaching, preaching, and miracle-working.

Invocation to St. Anthony: Dear Saint Anthony, I extend my prayer to you, confident in your compassionate goodness, which can listen and console everyone: be my intercessor before the Lord.

You who led an evangelical life, help me to live mine with faith and Christian hope; you who preached the message of charity, inspire the whole of humanity to search for peace and brotherhood; you who supported, even through miracles, the suffering and all those who were facing injustice, please sustain the poor and the forsaken of this world.

Bless especially my work and my family, taking away illnesses of body and soul; make me capable of always remaining close to God, both in times of joy or sorrow, with the faith and the love of a son.

Amen!
