The “Unfailing Prayer to Saint Anthony” is a popular prayer among the faithful and those who venerate Saint Anthony of Padua, a beloved Franciscan friar and doctor of the Church. Saint Anthony is often invoked as the patron saint of lost items and is renowned for his intercession in helping people find lost things or solutions to their problems. The prayer is often used in times of difficulty, seeking guidance, and asking for help in finding lost items.
This prayer reflects the faith and belief that Saint Anthony’s intercession can lead to miraculous help and solutions, whether they are related to finding lost objects or other challenges. It’s important to note that while the prayer holds deep significance for many people, its effectiveness lies in the spiritual connection and devotion to Saint Anthony rather than any guaranteed outcome.

O holy Saint Anthony, gentlest of saints, your love for God and charity toward all God’s creatures made you worthy, when on earth, to possess miraculous powers. Miracles followed your word, which you were ever ready to speak for those in trouble or need. Encouraged by this thought, I implore you to grant also my request: (Make your request here.)
The answer to my prayer may require a miracle; even so, you are the Saint of Miracles! O gentle and loving St. Anthony, whose heart was always full of human sympathy, whisper my petition into the ears of the Holy Infant Jesus, who loved to rest in your arms, and the gratitude of my heart will always be yours. Amen.
