2026-01-17 00:00 - 23:59 (America/Chicago) | KS
St. Anthony the Abbot sought God in silence and simplicity. Leaving behind wealth and comfort, he retreated to the desert where prayer, fasting, and trust in God shaped his days. Though he lived apart from society, people were drawn to his wisdom and spiritual strength. St. Anthony became a guide to many, offering counsel grounded in humility and perseverance. His life gave rise to monastic traditions that continue today. We honor a saint who shows that withdrawing from noise can deepen compassion, and that listening for God often begins in stillness.
