Wow! St Anthony's Day is also the memorial of the Immaculate Heart of Mary. I am sure St. Anthony is so happy since his love for Mary is well known. Of his sermons still in exisitance his praise of Mary survives. St. Anthony is also the patron of Portugal and Our Lady appeared to the children of Fatima on St. Anthony's Day in 1917. The children had to skip the St. Anthony's day festivities in order to meet with Our Lady. I am sure St. Anthony would not mind us skipping anything to honor him in order to honor her to whom the Franciscan Order is dedicated. The San Antonio Mission in Jolon California is having their annual fiesta on the 14th of June this year. I hope you can make it. The Mass starts at 11:00am and the festivities follow. Go and donate to save the Mission. If you can't make it at least send a donation to the address below in honor of St. Anthony's Bread. God bless you all and happy feasts of the Immaculate Heart of Mary and St. Anthony of Padua. St.Anthony's Bread c/o Mission San Antonio de Padua P..
