For faith and trust in God's miraculous power

From the Novena to St. Anthony of Padua

Sacred Scripture: Matthew 17:20

Meditation for Day 1

St. Anthony's whole life was a testimony to the power of God working through a humble servant. Like him, we are invited today to bring every anxiety and trouble before the Lord, trusting that nothing is impossible for God. As our Lord promised, faith the size of a mustard seed is enough to move mountains. Ask St. Anthony today to deepen your trust and to carry your most pressing need before the Infant Jesus.

Daily Novena Prayer (recited every day)

Closing Prayer

O God, may the votive commemoration of blessed Anthony, your confessor, be a source of joy to your Church, that she may always be fortified with spiritual assistance, and deserve to enjoy eternal rewards. Through Christ our Lord. Amen. Saint Anthony, pray for us!
