13th June St Anthony of Padua & Lisbon
https://saintmichaelusa.org/0613anthonypadua/
St. Anthony gave us his short life as an example of how to “preach the Gospel” to everyone we see. As St. Francis said, “Use words when needed”. As we are commissioned as Catholics after every Mass we attend, to go and preach good news, we can use our lives to do that, in any occupation we are in. We can all use our thoughts, words, actions to preach the Gospel simply by loving God with all our heart, and our neighbor as ourselves. Imagine if each one of us could do this starting now, what a better place this world would be. Lets challenge ourselves to call upon St. Anthony for his assistance, especially on his feast day.

“St. Anthony of Padua, finder of lost things, guide us to find Christ in our hearts.”

“The life of the body is the soul; the life of the soul is God.”

“The devil fears the prayer of a humble heart, for it is a weapon he cannot withstand.”

“Let us love the cross of Christ, for through it we find salvation.”

“Seek the kingdom of God, and all else will be added to you.”

“Actions speak louder than words; let your words teach and your actions speak.”
