"The life of the body
is the soul;
the life of the soul
is God."
St Anthony
IMAGO SACRA MILLE GRATIARUM VALET. ("A holy picture is worth a thousand graces")................... This blog is a means to show some of my holy card collection along with some interesting thoughts and inspirations. "....artists have the privilege in the Church and throughout history, to open up so that people can see the mystery of God. The artist speaks, not just literally, but symbolically. Visual images, if well done, can move us. That's a ministry." Quote from Brother Michael Moran, C.P

We have a Saint Anthony statue in our lounge :) His story is so inspiring
Micki, I love Saint Anthony, he is my patron saint. Many times he has come to my aid. He is a most powerful saint.
Marilena - Unfortunately some folks don't understand the entire meaning.
Thanks for letting us know about "the garden"...I'll be there asap.
diddleymaz - Yes, a wonderful history. Too bad some only think he is for "lost items."
Ed - I do too Ed. I have a son named Anthony....I pray St. Anthony keeps after him...he has lost an important "something" and all we can do is pray.
St Anthony is my patron saint - I always pray to him in times of sadness and he has always answered my prayers. If you believe in HIM you are never lost.

I too love St. Anthony, I have a son with that name so I'm partial to him also.
St.Anthony is my Patron Saint.We have at least six persons in our families including me and my oldest son.We also have a statue of the Saint in our kitchen,and when ever something is lost we pray to him besides other prayers,and he will find it for us.
St.Anthony pray for us. Anth.Pace
