We challenge you to memorize this Bible Verse of the Day: Matthew 7:12

 

 

Read the Saint story with your child and have them color the picture below

St. Anthony of Padua

Fernando was born to a rich family in Portugal and at 15 years old he decided that he wanted to dedicate his life to God.

He studied hard and was ordained a priest.

One day, Fernando met a group of Franciscans and he liked their simple and holy way of life.

He joined the Franciscans and changed his name to Anthony. One of his friends was St. Francis of Assisi.

Anthony had the great gift of preaching, and he began to speak all over Italy.

The churches were packed with people who loved to hear Anthony share about the Gospel, which is the message that Jesus taught.

Anthony also spent many hours praying. Someone once saw him in prayer, holding the precious little child Jesus in his arms.

We can ask St. Anthony to pray for us whenever we’re called to share the Gospel message with others.

St. Anthony, Pray for us.
