JOIN THE MONASTERY’S ONGOING NOVENA IN HONOR OF SAINT ANTHONY OF PADUA

Saint Anthony of Padua is a favorite intercessor for Catholics, especially in times of great need. Over 100 years ago, he became the patron of the Franciscan Custody of the Holy Land, whose friars credited the saint’s prayers for delivering them from danger.

In these days, when our world faces a global pandemic and so many pray for deliverance, the friars of the Holy Land Monastery invite you to join our continuing prayers to St. Anthony. We ask God for healing, for peace and for your personal intentions.

Saint Anthony’s Feast Day Bread Donation – It’s customary to bless and distribute bread on St. Anthony’s feast day. Since we cannot do that this year, we ask you to join us in sharing “bread” of a different kind. During the time of pandemic, many of the people we serve in the Holy Land have been greatly affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. Would you consider making a donation of “bread” to help our parishioners, students, the elderly and others among these “Living Stones,” in the Holy Land?  Click here to donate.
