Help us continue to serve the poor and needy, our men in formation, and our retired & infirm friars.
DonateSt. 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.
“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.
The 130 friars of St. John the Baptist Province (SJB) are members of the Order of Friars Minor. We are a Franciscan brotherhood inspired by the 13th-century example of St. Francis of Assisi. We serve the Catholic Church as brothers and priests in a communal life of poverty, prayer, and service to others.
Blessed are those who mourn for they will be comforted.
For the financial needs of those who have cancer, we pray.
Lovely Saint Anthony For all lovely life to have wellness, healthiness, safety, security, fairness, free, truth, nice circumstances Amen with love thanks always

hi my name is Justin K., and so I would like a wife, and I don't know if that matters to God or not. I just learned that 11 of the 12 disciples were married... I have been asking for prayer for this, for almost a decade now, to no avail. So if we need to go that direction, I guess I will say that people could pray that it be God's will for this to happen very soon. Thank you

Dear Almighty Father, I humbly seek Your guidance and strength as I face challenges at work. The stress and pressure have taken a toll on me, and it seems that despite my best efforts, I am being held accountable for issues beyond my control.

I also humbly ask for the opportunity to explore new employment prospects, allowing me to start anew. I offer this prayer through Lord Jesus Christ, with the guidance of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
Ich habe ... seit Januar drei Mal eine falsche Nebenkostenabrechnung für 2024 bekommen. Anstatt mir endlich die richtige Abrechnung zu schicken, haben sie mir eine Mahnung mit 13 € Mahngebühr geschickt und drohen mit Inkasso.
