2018 St. Anthony's Relics Visit Nova Scotia

November 4-14, 2018, Saint Anthony's Relics visit Nova Scotia (Canada.) This coming November from the 4th. to 10th., a friar from the Basilica in Padua, will bring two precious relics of St. Anthony of Padua to the diocese of Halifax-Yarmouth, Nova Scotia, Canada. The relics will visit churches in Amherst, Antigonish, Berwick, Bridgewater, Dartmouth, Enfield, Halifax and Truro. One reliquary contains layers of skin from St Anthony’s cheek, and the 2nd. reliquary contains a fragment of one of the Saint’s Floating Ribs. The Floating Rib relic has special meaning because it was venerated by Sister Lucia of Fatima in her convent in Coimbra, Portugal, in 1995, for the 800th anniversary of Saint Anthony’s birth.
