Novenas to St. Anthony, in Padua
AUGUST 2 – 10, 2026 & AUGUST 11 – 19, 2026
St. Anthony of Padua was a powerful preacher and friend to the poor. He is honored through the gift of St. Anthony’s Bread, through a series of three Novenas around his feast day on June 13, and in two Novenas offered in Padua, Italy, in August.
We reflect on St. Anthony’s fearless courage in preaching the Word of God.
Prayers to St. Anthony
