With the consultative leadership of the Parish
Pastoral Leadership Team (PPLT), these values are consistently demonstrated
by the various parish ministries: Worship, Lifelong Formation and Education,
Evangelization, Service, Family Life, Social Concerns, Finance, and
Administration.
At Saint Anthony of Padua, you will find a
spirit filled musical ministry with Africentric anthems, spirituals, and
gospel music, a vibrant Health Ministry (weekly Blood Pressure Screening and
Health and Fitness assessments), an energetic Seniors Ministry (bus trips to
Miami and Key West, FL), an active Teen Ministry (bag lunch in the park for
the homeless), a unified Men's Action Club (Annual Dinner Dance), a
dedicated Habitat to Humanity ministry, and a festive Knights of Peter
Claver and Knights of Peter Claver Ladies' Auxiliary (Annual Ash Wednesday
Red Beans & Rice Dinner and Fat Tuesday/Mardi Gras Celebration).
Currently, the Evangelization and the Lifelong
Formation Ministries are launching a series of spiritual renewal events,
which were designed to foster spiritual development and to provide
opportunities for faith sharing within and beyond the parish community.
These events consist of a Parish Renewal Day along with a Mini-Series on the
Mass. The intent for the parish community is to learn more about the
history, traditions, symbols and gestures, biblical references and essential
elements of the Mass, in order to enhance the spiritual impact of the Holy
Mass for each parishioner and the entire faith community. Saint Anthony of
Padua invites the surrounding community to travel and grow with them on this
exciting spiritual journey for another 100 years!
