Spreading the Gospel and fulfilling our obligation of helping those less fortunate
The Saint of Miracles Among us

The two first-class Relics (fragments of St. Anthony’s Facial Skin and his Floating Rib) will be accompanied by Father Mario Conte and Father Fabio Turrisendo, two Franciscan friars from the Pontifical Basilica of St. Anthony in Padua, Italy.
We are looking forward to meeting you in person, and will be waiting for you!
