JUNE’S PROFILE OF A SAINT – ST. ANTHONY OF PADUA
Feastday: June 13
Birth: August 15, 1195 - Death: June 13, 1231
Saint Anthony was canonized (declared a saint) less than one year after his death.
There is perhaps no more loved and admired saint in the Catholic Church than Saint Anthony of Padua, a Doctor of the
Church. Though his work was in Italy, he was born in Portugal. He first joined the Augustinian Order and then left it and
joined the Franciscan Order in 1221, when he was 26 years old. The reason he became a Franciscan was because of the
death of the five Franciscan protomartyrs -- St. Bernard, St. Peter, St. Otho, St. Accursius, and St. Adjutus -- who shed
their blood for the Catholic Faith in the year 1220, in Morocco, in North Africa, and whose headless and mutilated
bodies had been brought to St. Anthony’s monastery on their way back for burial. St. Anthony became a Franciscan in
the hope of shedding his own blood and becoming a martyr. He lived only ten years after joining the Franciscan Order.
So simple and resounding was his teaching of the Catholic Faith, so that the most unlettered and innocent might understand it, that he was made a
Doctor of the Church by Pope Pius XII in 1946. Saint Anthony was only 36 years old when he died. He is called the hammer of the Heretics. His
great protection against their lies and deceits in the matter of Christian doctrine was to utter, simply and innocently, the Holy Name of Mary. When
St. Anthony of Padua found he was preaching the true Gospel of the Catholic Church to heretics who would not listen to him, he then went out and
preached it to the fishes. This was not, as liberals and naturalists are trying to say, for the instruction of the fishes, but rather for the glory of God,
the delight of the angels, and the easing of his own heart. St. Anthony wanted to profess the Catholic Faith with his mind and his heart, at every
moment.
Born Fernando Martins de Bulhões; also known as Anthony of Lisbon, was a Portuguese Catholic priest and friar of the Franciscan Order. He was
born and raised by a wealthy family in Lisbon and died in Padua, Italy. Noted by his contemporaries for his forceful preaching and expert knowledge
of scripture, he was the second-most-quickly canonized saint after Peter of Verona. He was proclaimed a Doctor of the Church on 16 January 1946.
He is also the patron saint of finding things or lost people.
Anthony became sick with ergotism, a disease which is now known also under the name "Saint Anthony's Fire", and, in 1231, went to the woodland
retreat at Camposampiero with two other friars for a respite. There he lived in a cell built for him under the branches of a walnut tree. Anthony
died on the way back to Padua on 13 June 1231 at the Poor Clare monastery at Arcella (now part of Padua), aged 35.
According to the request of Anthony, was buried in the small church of Santa Maria Mater Domini, probably dating from the late 12th century and
near a convent which had been founded by him in 1229. Nevertheless, due to his increased notability, construction of a large Basilica began around
1232 - although it was not completed until 1301. The smaller church was incorporated into structure as the Cappella della Madonna Mora (Chapel
of the Dark Madonna). The basilica is commonly known today as "Il Santo".
He is typically depicted with a book and the Infant Child Jesus, to whom He miraculously appeared, and is commonly referred to today as the
"finder of lost articles. Various legends surround the death of Anthony. One holds that when he died, the children cried in the streets and that all
the bells of the churches rang of their own accord. Another legend regards his tongue. Anthony is buried in a chapel within the large basilica built
to honor him, where his tongue is displayed for veneration in a large reliquary. When his body was exhumed thirty years after his death, it was
found turned to dust, but the tongue was claimed to have glistened and looked as if it was still alive and moist; apparently a further claim was
made that this was a sign of his gift of preaching. On 1 January 1981 Pope John Paul II authorized a scientific team to study the saint's remains and
the tomb was opened on 6 January.
