The Feast of St. Anthony will be celebrated at the National Shrine of St. Anthony in Mt. Airy with four Masses and an afternoon prayer service. Each service will include a blessing with the St. Anthony Relic, and the distribution of loaves of “St. Anthony Bread.” Come early to part for the 7 pm Mass, which is usually the most crowded.

A different friar will celebrate each liturgy: Father Mike Chowning will celebrate the early morning Mass.
