The St. Anthony of Padua Prayer Ministry at St. Laurence Catholic Church in Sugar Land, Texas, joyfully brings together people of all ages to honor St. Anthony of Padua and seek his powerful intercession. Through prayer, worship, and devotion, the ministry encourages the faithful to deepen their relationship with Jesus Christ and experience the peace, hope, and grace that God bestows through this beloved saint.
This cherished devotion began at St. Laurence Parish in April 1997 and has remained a vibrant spiritual tradition for nearly three decades. Every Tuesday, the faithful gather at 6:30 p.m. for the Holy Rosary and Chaplet of Divine Mercy, followed by Holy Mass and the Novena to St. Anthony of Padua at 7:00 p.m. Together, they entrust their families, intentions, and needs to the Lord through the saint’s loving intercession.
Each year, the ministry celebrates the Feast of St. Anthony of Padua, bringing the community together in prayer, thanksgiving, and fellowship. The annual celebration is held on the Saturday closest to St. Anthony’s feast day, June 13. In 2027, the 31st Annual Feast will be celebrated at 7:00 p.m. on Saturday, June 12.
All are warmly invited to join this beautiful devotion and become part of a faith-filled community united in prayer. Come and experience the blessings, fellowship, and spiritual renewal that flow through the intercession of St. Anthony of Padua.

Tenth of 13-week devotion: Prayer to St. Anthony of Padua, Servant of Mary (August 18, 2026)
O glorious St. Anthony of Padua, faithful servant of Jesus and devoted servant of the Blessed Virgin Mary, intercede for me that I may learn from your humble love and devotion to her.
Teach me to honor Mary as you did, trusting her maternal care and following her example of humility, obedience, purity, and complete surrender to God. May she always lead me closer to her Son, Jesus, and help me to recognize His presence in every part of my life.
St. Anthony, help me to imitate Mary's “yes” to God. When I am uncertain, teach me to trust. When I am called to sacrifice, give me courage. When I am blessed, keep me humble and grateful. May my heart remain open to God's will, just as Mary's heart was completely receptive to His grace.
Through your intercession, may I grow in love for Christ, deepen my devotion to Mary, and become a faithful servant of God and of others. May my life reflect the humility and simplicity with which you served the Lord.
St. Anthony of Padua, Servant of Mary, pray for me. Help me to place myself under Mary's loving care, follow her example, and allow her to lead me ever closer to Jesus. 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.
