At the lower right of the painting a man in a brown robe kneels on a surface, maybe a floor. Beads and a cross hang from his waist. On the ground in front of him are an open book and a stalk of lily with three blossoms. He cradles the Christ Child in his arms. At the top right of the painting – across from the man and slightly above him – the Madonna hovers, suspended by cherubs. She holds her hands toward the man and child, palms out and fingers pointing down. Portions at least of six more cherubs are visible in the center of the painting above the man’s head, and in the top right corner.

Today, we honor Saint Anthony of Padua, a humble vessel of God's profound wisdom. Despite human frailty, he illuminated the world with divine truth. Let us, too, embrace our weaknesses, allowing God's strength to shine through. #stanthonyofpadua #saintanthony #jesus #jesuschrist #catholicchurch

This picture shows St. Anthony of Padua Catholic Church in Sokółka, Poland. This is the Church where a Eucharistic miracle occurred on Oct. 12, 2008. During the Holy Mass celebrated at this Church, a consecrated host fell from the hands of one of the priests during the distribution of Communion. The priest picked up the host, and, in accordance with liturgical norms, placed it in a small container of water. The host was expected to dissolve in the water, which would later be disposed of properly. At the end of the Mass, at the request of the pastor, the parish sacristan poured the water and the host into another container. Knowing that the consecrated host would take some time to dissolve, she placed the new container in the safe located in the parish sacristy. Only she and the pastor had the keys to the safe. A week later, when the pastor asked her about the condition of the host, the sacristan went to the safe. When she opened the door, she noticed a delicate aroma of unleavened bread. When she opened the container, she saw, in the middle of the host—which was still largely intact - a curved, bright red stain, like a blood stain: a living particle of a body. The water was untainted by the color.

St Anthony is well known as the finder of lost things, just as I completed this cross several lost things that I’d been searching for over many months became obviously apparent!

A portrait-mode, nearly square painting of Saint Anthony in brown robes, kneeling to embrace a naked Christ child who stands before him on a book on a table or altar. There is a vase of flowers behind the Christ child. Through an open door or window, a landscape is visible behind the saint, to the viewer's right. Four cherubs in clouds hover above the two figures below.
