“It’s the Franciscan spirit that pervades every inch of St. Anthony’s that I love the most. Here, it’s easy to follow in the footsteps of The One who delighted in the diversity of creation, finding His brotherhood with each man, woman, child, and element of nature. The giftedness of the African-American community is their soul. It echoes in the music, food, laughter, struggle, and ability to ‘keep on keepin’ on’ because of the awareness of and faith in Jesus’ presence.”
