Dear Saint Anthony…
Please Come Around; Someone is Lost and Cannot Be Found.
Over the centuries, Saint Anthony of Padua has a reputation for finding lost items. It is part and parcel of Catholic culture and tradition to pray to Saint Anthony when something is lost, but how often has his intercession been sought for someone who is lost?
One of the most troubling aspects of our times is the mass exodus of souls from the Catholic Faith. At America Needs Fatima, Saint Anthony has been appointed as THE saint to find lost souls. In Saint Anthony, we have a real ally, a saint who will help bring back those lost sheep who wander from the fold.
For this reason, we have launched a direct mail and online campaign called “Saint Anthony and the Lost Sheep.” Thousands of people have sent their intentions to Saint Anthony for the conversion of their friends and family members. In June of 2021, during the Thirteen Tuesdays Devotion to Saint Anthony, their intentions were delivered swiftly and safely to the tomb of the “miracle worker” at his shrine in Padua, Italy. These people were, in fact, joining our America Needs Fatima ambassadors in a spiritual way during their pilgrimage to the burial place of Saint Anthony on the 790th anniversary of his death.
If Saint Anthony is the ultimate finder of lost things, which are of minimal value, we have faith that he will find these lost souls, which has infinite value. ■
