Saint Anthony Spiritual Supplies Questions and Answers

Hello!

I was wondering whether St. Anthony has his own special hour during the day. I understand his day is normally Tuesdays. But we're dealing with a crisis, so I had LM light his candle already today. But I was wondering if there are hrs in the day where we can really get St Anthony's attention?

Like a time in the morning or evening dedicated to him?

Or a number of times to say a prayer to invoke him to help?

Thank You in advance,

mimiso

A small point, its not his feast day, that comes once a year,some bits of catholic folk magic assign each saint a day of the week. A small but important difference.

Saint Anthony is a miraculous worker! He has located items for me many times including a valued friend. I am still in need as a very precious item that is lost from my sight but I have had a reading as to its location but it has not been returned. Saint Anthony is indeed a great Saint to have on your side.

I would just like to thank St Anthony for once again finding something for me. Earlier today I lost my favorite ring. I remembered taking it off but could not remember where. With the help of St Anthony my ring is back on my finger where it belongs. Thank you so much St Anthony!

Saint Anthony is wonderful when it comes to helping you find things!
I like your story about the pennys

colorfulsky · Unread post by **colorfulsky** » Fri Aug 13, 2010 7:38 am

I agree, he has helped me find things a lot too. He is actually the one I turn to now when I have lost something.

Eventhough the pennies worked really well for me, I stopped collecting them at some point (when the Mark changed to Euros, I figured it wouldn't work if the pennies (Pfennige) had lost their value). I guess I just grew out of it as well, you know how teens are.... they stop believing in magic, Santa and "nonsence" like that, its sad really.

I was thinking of that today, particularly for St. Lazarus and Dr. Hernandez. Are there any specific charities that they seem to appreciate? (e.g. st jude's hospital for st. jude)

There is usually a man that begs for money on the way to the interstate. I keep hoping I'll see him so that i can give him food and money as a personal "thank you" to St. Lazarus. I'd rather do something face to face than just wire money.

Dr. Hernandez wishes us to buy medicines for the poor -- he was a doctor and donated all his money beyond the most meagre living expenses to buy medicine for the poor himself.

You are right on with Saint Jude -- he has hospitals!

Your idea about Saint Lazarus is also fine -- any homeless person or "tramp on the street" (as the old song by about Lazarus goes), would be a suitable recipient of gratitude toward him. Here's a nice home-grown version of the song "Tramp on the Street" --

I plan on making a donation to the St. Jude's hospital so thats is something you can do. It definitely helps those that are less fortunate, and it is very well known so you know your money is going towards a great cause. I'm glad to hear that everything is working out for you.

Hello, Anthony --

You are right: the Lily is the flower of Saint Anthony (as it is of all saints whom the Catholic Church declares to have died as virgins),

The most common thanks offerings to Saint Anthony are ex votos and Saint Anthony's Bread.

An ex voto is a small painting, stamped metal image, wxen image, or written testament to the saint's successful intercession. The word "ex voto" means "from my vow" and the vow in question is that if the saint helps your case, you will show the world -- in the church -- that he did so. The tradition of painting and dating ex votos can be traced back to classical Mediterranean Europe and is found today wherever Mediterranean Europeans live, including their ex-colonies in the Americas, the Pacific Island, and Africa. Reverse-painted glass ex votos, framed in wood, denerally depict the petitioner at prayer, with the saint appearing overhead, about to grant the boon requested. Here is an example of an ex voto painted in 1773 in which the father of a boy with epilepsy (who is shown having a seizure) prays to Saint Anthony of Padua for help. It hangs in the Saint Antonius Chapel in Haidlfing, Germany.

Saint Anthony came from Padua, Italy. Painted ex votos are the typical thanks-offerings to Saint Anthony and other saints in the traditions of Italian, Portuguese, French, German, Spanish, Sicilian, Austrian, and Greek Catholic or Orthodox Christians, or those from another European nation. Similar painted ex votos are common in most of Mexico, Guatemala, Peru, and other Spanish colonial nations outside the African Diasporic cultural area.

Generic ex votos depicting persons, animals, items or goods that have been found, healed, restored, or acquired due to a saint's intercession are sometimes made by casting beeswax into a mould is northern Europe. Similar generic ex votos may be made of thin stamped "tin" metal -- especially in Greece, Germany, and Peru. Alternatively, they may be cast in brass and given a wash of silver -- a style common in Germany, Mexico, Guatemala, Ecuador, and Peru. In Latin America, small stamped and cast metal ex votos are colloquially called "milagros" which means "miracles."

Public thanks offerings are not always material tokens or objects, such as an ex voto. If the matter in which Saint Anthony helped, were small, a monetary donation may be made to the church poor box; if larger, the donation might take the form of funding or helping to fund a purchase for the church itself, such as a statue, re-gilding of the dome, or a baptismal font. If the donor were artistically or crafts-talented, embroidered altar cloths would be suitable offerings, as would cloth garments for the statue of the saint, if his was a clothed statue in that particular church.

In modern Europe -- and especially in the English-speaking portions of the Americas -- it has become the custom to "magnify the fame" of the saint by publishing his name in a newspaper or, more recently, on the internet. Thus you will see many signature-lines in the Lucky Mojo Forum in which thanks are given to a variety of saints.

Gold-decorated wax candles as tall as a person who was lost and then found or who was healed or restored through a saint's intercession, were a common sight in European churches during my childhood. Often these special candle offerings were put on display in the chapel of the saint, and they are lit on his annual feast day.

If a saint was petitioned to intervene in a matter that is very serious indeed, a petitioner might promise to name a child for the saint in gratitude for a successful outcome. The child would then become the living ex voto whose very existence provided honour to the saint.

When it comes to the traditions oi Saint Anthony specifically, it is important to note that most of the customs outlined above would apply to any saint, but one offering -- the giving of Saint Anthony's Bread -- is dedicated to him alone.

Saint Anthony's Bread is an offering of baked bread, wheat, or flour equal in weight to the person who was lost and has been found, or who was ill and has been restored to health, through the intercession of Saint Anthony. The bread or its equivalent weight in wheat or flour, or its fair-market monetary value, can be directly distributed to the poor by the one whose petition was granted, or it can be donated to a Catholic charity or a secular food bank or community kitchen for distribution in the name of Saint Anthony.

Because all people, even the most wealthy and secure, may at any moment fall into need, it is the practice in some churches (especially those named for Saint Anthony) for the priest to bless small loaves of Saint Anthony's Bread on the annual feast day of Saint Anthony and to distribute them to the parishioners.

Wow cat thank u sooo much!since my name is anthony I think it would feel right 2 honor him along w the goddess.I've prayed 2 him b4 for a job interview & I ended up getting the job. This was 5 years ago.After that I've been doing most of my worship to isis.I think now is a time 2 thank him.I've had a problem w my boyfriend w insecurity issues.I did some divination in which who I should pray 2 for my situation w him & the result was either saint anthony or archangel raphael ( which I've been considering to btw hahahaa).but I'm drawn to saint anthony more.I have some prayer cards of him from my grandpa but never really use them because I'm not catholic or christian but an ecletic isaic witch.but I think I can still worship him whether I'm of the catholic faith,he probably won't care anyways if I love him & worship him right?well ny who,thank u once again & may the blessings of isis go onto u

Thank you Saint Anthony for helping me find the lost screw to my glasses so quickly!

I was trying to replace the screw that fell out somehow and I dropped the new one onto the floor.
It's teeny tiny and I looked for it on my hands and knees for a long time with no luck. I went into the other room in rage and frustration to calm myself and asked St Anthony to please help me find the dang thing. I can't see to even find it without my glasses.

I came back in and saw a speck on the floor a long distance from where I was standing...sure enough it was that screw! It's a silly trivial thing I know, but I never would have found it without his help.

Saint Anthony rocks!
