The Story
- Learn about his astonishing life
- His gifts, stories and miracles
- Understand his power before the throne of God
- Beautiful gift for those devoted to St. Anthony of Padua
To call St. Anthony of Padua one of the greatest saints is mistaken; it is not enough of an honor for so illustrious, so magnificent, so pure a holy man and second father of the Order of St. Francis; he is a contender for the title of greatest saint.
Called the "Ark of the Covenant"; he was also known as the "Hammer of Heretics." Throughout his short life (he died at 36), he preached with astounding vigor and miraculous glory, performing miracle upon miracle. He reattached a young boy's foot, induced a starving mule to bow to the Eucharistic Lord rather than eat oats, preached to the fishes, and held the Baby Jesus.
He is rightly called the wonder-worker of the Franciscans, and he is indeed the favorite Saint of probably the whole world. Within a year of death he was canonized. In this short biography, find the greatest deeds and happenings of the glorious saint's life; there is not a single anecdote or moment of his life that would not move you to a sublime awe at the amazing power God bestowed on his servant.
Come to know this holy and gentlest of all the saints, the Evangelical Doctor of the Church.
