St. Anthony of Padua

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.

The Shrine

“Mt. Airy” is the familiar name for the National Shrine of St. Anthony and Friary sitting on a hill above Cincinnati. The shrine had its start in the late 1880s, when Joseph and Elizabeth Nurre bought what was then a country estate for $18,000 and gave it to the Franciscan friars.

We serve the Catholic Church as brothers and priests in a communal life of poverty, prayer, and service to others.

In the last few months: 1. I live in a social housing flat/section 8 apartment on a very busy main road. The sound proofing is very poor so I am constantly disturbed by the noise from my neighbours and the traffic outside my bedroom window day and night disturbing my sleep. Because of the type of flat, I have to advertise my property to be able to move to a quieter flat and I had found someone to swap my flat in September... but they dropped out last minute so once again I have to stay in my flat that has been making me sick and unable to work ... I am advertising again so please pray that I find a new suitable flat very soon No one that I told I had a miscarriage bothered to care so I am left alone to grieve by myself. No one has visited me after hearing the news to check on me or called me since I told them to see how I am doing so I am all alone struggling with the event itself. I need prayer for restoration and breakthrough in every area of my life
