St. Anthony of Padua Prayer Ministry of St. Laurence Catholic Church, Sugar Land brings together the young and old alike, to honor St. Anthony of Padua and pray for his intercession helping to deepen their devotion to Jesus. This ministry caters to the harmonious gathering of devotees from all Christian denominations and religious affiliations to pray and worship in the Catholic tradition, through the celebration of the Holy Eucharist and Novena on every Tuesday. It encourages the attendees to remember that God, in his love, may have his own way of answering their prayers. This devotion had started at St. Laurence in April 1997 with annual feast celebrated on the Saturday close to the feast day of the Saint (June 13) (2025 Annual Feast will be celebrated at 7:00 pm, Saturday, June 14) and continues to attract many, particularly young adults who may be on the verge of leaving their faith, by helping them to recommit themselves to the Catholic faith.
The service consists of reciting Holy Rosary and Chaplet of Divine Mercy at 6:30 PM and Holy Mass at 7:00 PM followed by the novena to the Saint. It is offered at the Church on first Tuesdays of the month, and at the Divine Mercy Chapel on other Tuesdays.
We hope you and your family will have a warm and spirit-filled experience with us as we worship and fellowship together at our services, and events. May God bless you abundantly.
Tenth of 13-week devotion: Prayer to St. Anthony of Padua for Families and Loved Ones (May 20, 2025)
O glorious St. Anthony of Padua, Gentle and loving friend of God, you were a faithful son of the Church and a tireless servant to the poor and suffering. We come to you today with humble hearts, asking for your intercession for our families and our loved ones.
We pray for your protection and guidance, for ourselves and our loved ones, and for all those in need of your miraculous help. Obtain for us from God, Most High, the grace to accept whatever is God’s holy will for each one of us and our loved ones.
Watch over our homes, dear Saint, and protect them with your powerful prayers. Fill our hearts with the peace of Christ, and may love, understanding, and unity always dwell among us.
Intercede for our family members who are sick—may they receive healing and strength. For those who have strayed or feel lost, lead them gently back to God’s loving embrace.
Pray for parents, that they may be wise and loving; for children, that they may grow in faith and virtue; for spouses, that they may live in harmony and self-giving love. And for all our loved ones, near and far, that they may be safe, provided for, and blessed in every way.
St. Anthony, you who are known to bring miracles to those in need, carry our intentions before the Lord, and help us to always trust in God’s divine providence and unfailing love. Amen.
St. Anthony of Padua - Memorare
Remember, O miracle-working Saint, that it was never was heard that you left without help or relief anyone who in need had recourse to you. Animated with the liveliest confidence, even with the full conviction of not being refused, I fly for refuge for you, O most favored and blessed friend of the Infant Jesus! Eloquent preacher of the Divine mercies, despise not thy supplications, but bringing them before the throne of God, strengthen them by your intercession and obtain for me what I ask – help and consolation in my need, O most glorious, miracle-working, mighty St Anthony. Amen.
