TOP 24 QUOTES BY ANTHONY OF PADUA | A-Z Quotes
Pope Pius XII named St. Anthony a Doctor of the Universal Church,
that is, one of the great Christian teachers of all time—and a renowned preacher of
God’s word. In fact, Anthony was such a famous preacher that in 1228—at age 33—
he was invited to preach before Pope Gregory IX. Afterwards, the pope called
Anthony the “Ark
word that, in the eyes of the pope, he seemed to “contain” within himself
the whole of Sacred Scripture.
St Anthony of Padua, pray for us!
"From Lisbon, out of Portugal ... He went to Italy ... And there confounded heretics ... And conquered heresy ... He was God's holy orator ... Who spread the gospel true ... And whose great ardor made him one ... Of His selected few ... The legends now are legion of ... His miracles on earth ... The patron saint of barren wombs ... And those that promise birth ... He also is the patron of ... The poor and the unfed ... As hungry mouths are opened for ... St Anthony's special bread ... And many are his followers ... Who feel in heart and mind ... That any article they lose ... St Anthony will find." ~ From Poem Portraits of the Saints - James J Metcalfe (1956)
