10th Week of Ordinary Time C – Friday – Memorial of Saint Anthony of Padua, Franciscan Priest
Today, on this Memorial of Saint Anthony of Padua, Priest and Doctor of the Church, we gather to honour one of the earliest Franciscan friars whose life was a luminous example of faith, humility, and zealous proclamation of the Gospel. Saint Anthony’s story is a testament to how one person, rooted deeply in love for Christ and His Church, can become a powerful voice that echoes through history, inspiring countless generations to spread the Word of God with fervour and compassion.
