Prayer for the Rebuilding
of St. Anthony’s
Entrusting our parish, our mission, and our future to God
As we rebuild our parish home, we invite you to join us in prayer.
This campaign is not only about building a church—but strengthening our faith, our community, and our trust in God ’s providence.
PRAYER FOR THE SUCCESS OF
RAISE UP ST. ANTHONY’S CAPITAL CAMPAIGN
Loving and gracious God, you inspired our forebearers in this parish to build our church through the leadership of Msgr. Silvio Ross. For almost seven decades, it had been our house of worship and center for liturgical celebrations until it was destroyed in an unforgiving fire in October 2024.
Today, we take upon ourselves this great responsibility and sacred duty to build a new St. Anthony’s church that will be a home for us and those who will seek you in the generations to come in this beautiful town of Casa Grande.
Please help us to open our hearts and be inspired by your grace throughout this Capital Campaign. Reward the generosity of our donors beyond measure. Touch the hearts of those who doubt their capacity to share knowing that our fair share sacrificial offering is as significant as the widow’s mite; and our generous donation will go a long way when we place them in your providential hands just as you multiplied the meager fish and loaves.
As we move forward with the construction of our new church, we humbly ask You O Lord to bless our collective work and bring it to fruition. We, too, entrust to your loving care and protection all the people whose roles are so vital in raising up our St. Anthony’s church. We ask this through Christ, our Lord.
AMEN.
ST. JOSEPH, PRAY FOR US!
OUR LADY OF GUADALUPE, PRAY FOR US!
ST. ANTHONY OF PADUA, OUR PATRON SAINT, LEAD US!
