One day, when Anthony came down from the tree to join the other friars for lunch, he became seriously ill.

In canonizing Anthony in 1232, Pope Gregory IX spoke of him as the “Ark of the Testament” and the “Repository of Holy Scripture.”

With the Stations of the Cross, we walk with Jesus in his final act of love and sacrifice.

In writing to a Poor Clare, St. Bonaventure said, “Your heart is to be an altar of God. It is here that the fire of intense love must burn always.”

God’s love and mercy is revealed in Jesus breathing forth the Spirit of love and forgiveness upon his disciples.

Anthony traveled tirelessly in both northern Italy and southern France, choosing to enter the cities where the heretics were strongest.
