St. Anthony is often called upon to help find lost items. I do this myself. It is amazing how quickly he can help me find that missing piece of a toy that my children just have to have right now! More importantly, however, he is known as the patron of lost souls. Here is a simple prayer for help when we are discouraged.
By your example and your prayers for me,
come to my aid, Saint Anthony, when I must face difficulties and disappointments.
By your help may I realize more deeply that God loves me and is always with me.
Amen.
