PreNatal Vitamins:Pray for our Missionaries

If you wish to donate Pre Natal Vitamins to our sister parish it would be greatly appreciated. Pregnant mothers who are not able to afford these vitamins experience a greater percentage of delivering a child with a cleft palate among other problems. Our Speech Therapy team is will be sending these vitamins in the August container.

Peru Trip in October:

Watch for informtion about our next St. Anthony Peru trip to visit our sister parish, Santisimo Sacramento in Piura, Peru. If you are interested in joining or if you’d like more information, please contact Maureen in the parish office at michaelsm@stanthony.cc or 262-691-9170. As our former pastor, Fr. Tom Venne would say, “You couldn’t pay a travel agent to put together an experience such as this!”

Peru Container

We are sorry to let everyone know that due to the CoVID-19 Pandemic we will not be shipping a container to Peru in August. Pray that we will be able to do so in 2021.

Ways To Make A Difference:

There are many ways you can make a difference in helping our sister parish besides sponsoring a family or donating items for the container. St. Anthony and Santisimo Sacramento websites have many ideas in which to donate in honor of that hard to buy for birthday, anniversary or thinking of you gift. Tangible items such as purchasing a chicken, pig or donkey for a family, full day of work or one-week salary for a person in need of a job, shoes, clothing for a child, mattress or bed for a family, etc.
Santisimo’s website is www.santisimo.org. Click on English then scroll down to “Gifts for the Poor” to see other possibilities.
