Oh holy Saint Anthony, gentlest of saints, your love for God and charity for His creatures made you worthy while on earth to possess miraculous powers. Miracles awaited your word, which you were every ready to speak for those in trouble or anxiety. Encouraged by this thought, I ask you to obtain for me the favor I seek. The answer to my prayer may require a miracle; even so, you are the Saint of miracles.
O gentle and loving Saint Anthony, whose heart was full of human sympathy, may I imitate your life, and work for God and souls. I pray that the spirit of Christian love and unity may fill the people of God, and bring all His children together again as one flock with one Shepherd. Amen.
