Transcript of ST. ANTHONY OF PADUA CHURCH LORAIN, OH€¦ · St. Vincent de Paul Society by Michael Darby. Sunday...
ST. ANTHONY OF PADUA CHURCH LORAIN, OH
When it comes to Catholic Patron Saints, we
know the familiar ones, such as St. Christopher
for Travelers, St. Anthony of Padua for Lost Ar-
ticles, St. John Vianney for Priests, St. Jude for
Lost Causes, St. Rita of Cascia for Impossible
Causes, St. Francis of Assisi for Animals and
St. Isidore the Farmer for Farmers/Gardeners.
Personally, I’d recommend St. Katharine Drexel
for Deafness or Hearing Problems as the two
miracles for her beatification and canonization
were curing of the deaf. In times of trial try St.
Teresa of Avila or St. Bernadette, as they both
had to endure much difficulty in their lives.
However, if you are in the market for a new
Patron Saint, here are some more obscure/
unknown names and intentions. St. Raymond
for those Falsely Accused, St. Nicholas for
Children, St. Cunegund (Cunegaard) for Chil-
dren in Danger, St. Thomas Aquinas for Catho-
lic Schools, St. Dismas for Prisoners, St. George
for Boy Scouts, St. Winifred and St. Agnes for
Virgins, St. Cassian for Stenographers
(Secretaries), St. Gerard for Pregnant Women,
St. Matthew for Accountants, St. Luke for The-
atrical Professions, Doctors and Lawyers, St.
Sebastian for Athletes, St. Alphonsus Liguori
for Vocations and Arthritis, St. Acca for Phi-
losophers (and those who talk themselves out of
trouble), St. John Berchman for Altar Servers,
St. Susan for Chastity and Defilement, St. Cath-
erine of Sienna and St. Thomas the Apostle for
Doubters, St. Bona for Travel Hosts/Hostesses,
St. Werenfried for Vegetables, St. Norker Bal-
bus for Stammers, and St. Margaret of Cortona
for Repentant Women (Sinners). In any case,
find your favorite saint and pray together for
your needs.
~Rev. Edward J Smith

ST. ANTHONY OF PADUA CHURCH LORAIN, OH
ADORATION CHAPEL
“It is only by means of the Eucharist that we are able to live the heroic virtues of Christianity
such as charity to pardon one’s enemies, the love which enables us to suffer, the capacity to
give one’s life for another, chastity at all times of life in all situations, patience in the face of
suffering, and the apparent silence of God in human history or our very own existence.
Therefore, always strive to be Eucharistic souls, so as to be authentic Christians.” “Continue
on this journey of adoration bringing into the sight of Jesus Christ the anxieties, hopes, toils, and even the
sins of humanity.” ~ St. John Paul II
A wheelchair was made for St. John Paul II so he could move around freely. The chair was level with the
Tabernacle in his chapel. His secretary found the Pope embracing the Tabernacle. He asked the Pope
why. The Pope replied “I just don't know what else I can do to console Him.” “Perpetual Adoration of-
fers to our people the opportunity to join those in religious life to pray for the salvation of the world,
souls everywhere, and peace on earth. We cannot underestimate the power of prayer and the difference it
will make in our world.” ~ St. Mother Teresa of Calcutta

PRO LIFE THOUGHT OF THE WEEK
Let’s not pretend that abortion isn’t about the mass slaughter of innocents. Nothing is
more innocent than a baby who cannot speak for themself. The only voice they have is
yours. Pray and work to end abortion.

SCHOOL UPDATES FROM THE PRINCIPAL
As we celebrate Black History Month, I am reminded of Michael Jordan’s quote, “I can
accept failure. Everyone fails at something. But I can’t accept not trying.” These words
speak to me because of the message that it sends. We have all lived our lives with failure.
If it be in our work, family or other means, the key in all failures is to learn and not give
up. Here at Saint Anthony’s we try to teach that to our students as well as our staff. We
are not afraid to make mistakes, nor are we afraid to fail. What we never want to do is to
stop trying to be the best person that we can be. ~Mr. Julio Alarcon
MAINTENANCE UPDATES ON SCHOOL HEAT
ARTICLE COMPLETION
The next planned repairs to the
system are to clean and rebuild
certain steam traps on the west
heating loop and adjusting the
valve control in the Kindergarten
room. Currently Kindergarten is
the hottest room in the school and
is the only room in the school to
have both heating loops pass through it. Being able
to better regulate the temperature in Kindergarten
will allow heat to be directed to a colder room.
Please plan on joining us for our annual
“A Night in Paris”
to support the Tommy Zaworski Memorial Endowment Fund

IN NO GREATER LOVE, YOU WILL EXPERIENCE THE UNCONDITIONAL LOVE CHRIST HAS FOR YOU!
We often hear about Jesus’ passion & death, but imagine experiencing
them for the very first time. In No Greater Love: A Biblical Walk Through
Christ’s Passion, we are going to walk step-by-step with Jesus on His jour-
ney from His agony in the garden to His crucifixion on Calvary. Along the
way, we will unpack the biblical background to these events, the prophe-
cies, and most especially, the ways Jesus is inviting us to walk more
closely with Him today.
No Greater Love is a five-part Bible study program that begins Wednesday, March 4th at 7 pm at
St. Vincent de Paul Church, Elyria. Cost is $25 per person for materials. Scholarships are available.
For more information or to register, contact Jackie at 440-324-6615 ext. 4 or [email protected].
