Giving thanks to St. Anthony for his intercession on a divine level to assist me in getting my wedding rings back. I
had hidden my wedding rings in my home about 4 months ago after a rash
of house breaking ins and robberies in our area. I was working in another
community so felt that I may lose my rings, I hid them at my house in a
place that I was confident that anyone breaking into my home would not
look. However, I changed my mind so often about hiding places so many
times (thinking they still would be in a obvious place to a thief) that
my hiding place became so obscure that I could not remember where they
were when I returned some weeks later. Yesterday, I remembered that my
mother always prayed to St. Anthony when she lost something and it
always turned up. Mom always lost her car keys, so as children we would
have to join her on bended knees to pray to St. Anthony for their
return. I thought for so many of my young years that St. Anthony was
“the keeper of the keys” lol. I
said my prayer to St. Anthony yesterday morning and afterwards a series
of events took place that lead my husband to clean out an old plastic
bin in my son’s closet. We started throwing away items that were in that
bin so we could use it for storing items I had just bought to make
soap. My husband opened a long thin box to ensure there was nothing
worth saving in it before he tossed it into the garbage. His eyes were
so wide as his took my wedding rings out of the box. My rings showed up
in a box that held my son’s baptismal candle. My son is now 27 years
old, living in another province for the past 7 years. I cannot remember
putting my rings in that box. I looked up some information on St.
Anthony to connect with him spiritually, I needed to know about him. My
heartbeat intensified when I saw that his feast day is June 13th., for
that is my husband’s birthday. My husband is the most gentle, kind and
humble person I have ever met. God brought my husband into my life to
heal my heart and St. Anthony brought my wedding rings back through him
to remind me how sacred our union is. I had lost sight of that. I lost
my rings during a critical time in our marriage. Thank you St. Anthony!
