Together with two good friends I went on a little pilgrimage this morning to the Basilica of Sant’Antonio on the Via Merulana. The church was full of devotees of Saint Anthony. There were lines at all the confessionals. At the entrance to the basilica was a Franciscan priest with an aspergillum<\/em>, giving a blessing to the faithful as they entered.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/blockquote>\n

On the Feast of St Anthony of Padua (or, as our Portuguese sisters know him, St Anthony of Lisbon), a view of his shrine in the Cathedral. Deservedly one of the most popular places in the Cathedral, prayer petitions and gifts are regularly left for him. Today, I see, someone has taken the pious custom of ‘St Anthony’s bread’ rather literally and generously donated a loaf of bread!<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
