St. Anthony of Padua, a very popular saint to all people, it seems, for his faithful answering of prayers for lost objects. Count how many people you know are named Anthony, "Tony", to see the extent of his influence and popularity. We might forget, or not even know, however, that his initial popularity was not because he found things for people, but for his preaching, which brought many a "lost" soul back into a relationship with God. We might ask him today, on his feast day, to help with our prayers and efforts to bring people we know back "to the fold." In the "lost and found department", he never fails. as we all can attest. Thank you, St. Anthony!
