Thanksgiving is the day in which families and communities gather together to thank the Lord for the gifts they have received all year long. Sometimes, when overtaken by discouragement, it may seem that we have nothing to be grateful for, but in reality there is always a reason to give thanks. This is why, now more than ever, you are invited to give thanks to the Lord and to St. Anthony for the blessings you have received. Click here to write a special thank you note and the Friars of St. Anthony will lay it on the Tomb of our beloved Saint in his Basilica in Padua, Italy, and pray for you and your intentions.
