I had recently misplaced my Malaysian passport which is such a hassle to replace - going through the bureaucracies of police reports, immigration interviews, et cetera, whereby the whole process may take more than a month depending on luck. I'm due to fly this mid July to Poland for World Youth Day and all the preparation was done albeit the missing passport. Being so stressed out searching high and low for 3 days between 2 homes and 2 offices (I've just recently transferred between jobs), I prayed to St. Anthony 2 nights ago, and being discouraged thinking I may miss World Youth Day, asked for prayers from groups of friends last night whom advised me to pray to St. Anthony as well. Lo and behold, after going through the storeroom this morning (which was searched twice before), I've found it neatly tucked between a bunch of other documents and cash too which I didn't realize was misplaced in a cloth bag. My heart just leapt seeing that small book and gosh, it is such a relief! Thank you St. Anthony!
Thank you L.T. for your wonderful story of St. Anthony's help in finding something so important. Do you have a St. Anthony to share? Email it to us and we will post it on out blog~
He is one of the great saints of the Catholic Church, and one of the beloved--even far beyond Catholics themselves. Untold numbers of people turn to him, still, when there is loss. And strangely--at least strangely in the usual ways of the world--those things often quickly turn up. And often they turn up in the most unexpected--even seemingly miraculous ways. Let the stories begin.
