Feeding Hungry Children

April 2023 - St. Anthony’s funds a program that Fr. Rebert began and Fr. Lazar continues. It provides  much needed nourishment for babies and young children. Fr. Lazar provides food (formula, powdered milk, etc)  for the malnourished children. Mothers come to the courtyard of the parish to receive  this from Fr. Lazar.

St. Anthony Parish has recently financed the building of a wall around the St. Montfort
School property.  This is the largest area of flat land in the city of Port de Paix, The wall secures this area, will keep it clean, and
it will now be available not only for parish functions but for rent to groups outside the parish.
