You must really have fire in your blood if you're half Irish and are related to Diego Garcia, truly a noble lineage, and all the makings of a good liberal.
Okay you guys, go to Church, light candles and get those Novenas going, I'm serious. I love St. Anthony, he always helps you find things, physically, mentally and spiritually. Check this out, it is a prayer to St. Anthony, written by St. Bonaventure, who was a Doctor of the Church, you know. It is from medieval times, very chanty like, almost like casting a spell ( Remember, about that time, they were dealing with the plague)
The Miraculous Responsory - or "Si Quaeris"
(This prayer of praise in honor of St. Anthony was composed by St. Bonaventure. It is sung frequently in the Basilica of St. Anthony in Padua and every Tuesday throughout the world)
If then you ask for miracles,
Death, error, all calamities,
Leprosy and demons fly,
And health succeeds infirmities.
The sea obeys and fetters break,
And lifeless limbs do you restore;
While treasures lost are found again,
When young and old your aid implore.
All dangers vanish at your prayer,
And direst need does quickly flee;
Let those who know your power proclaim,
Let Paduans say: these are of thee.
To Father, Son, may glory be
And Holy Spirit, eternally.
Pray for us blessed Anthony.
Make us worthy of the promises of Christ.
Let us Pray
Lord God, may the votive commemoration of blessed Anthony, your Confessor and Doctor, be a source of joy for your people. May they always be strengthened with his spiritual assistance and deserve eternal rewards. Through Christ our Lord. Amen.
