“In recent centuries, millions of people came to this land to pursue their dream of building a future in freedom. We, the people of this continent, are not fearful of foreigners, because most of us were once foreigners. I say this to you as the son of immigrants, knowing that so many of you are also descended from immigrants....For those peoples and their nations, from the heart of American democracy, I wish to reaffirm my highest esteem and appreciation!”
SERVICE: Taking Care of His Suffering Body
Welcoming the Stranger
The presence of Jesus “in the flesh” is most evident in the faces of men, women and children who are strangers in our midst. In serving and loving them here at St. Anthony's, we serve and love him.
For new community members who prefer to speak and read in their native tongue, our website can be changed into other languages using the Google Translator on the right-side of the bottom black banner below. (And sorry if the translated words aren't always exactly correct!)
If you know of someone in need of our assistance, call the parish office.

Thanksgiving Prayer to St. Anthony
Most loving protector, St. Anthony, what gift can I give you in exchange to show my heartfelt gratitude? With your continued help I will show appreciation to you by being more faithful to God, more constant in prayer, and readier to do good to those nearest me....May these intentions convey my great thanks to the triune God, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, and to our blessed Lady, Queen of heaven and earth.
