Thank you for the beautiful pictures and reminders of St. Anthony's life.

I've been to Rimini several times; it takes a lot to impress them. Just south of Rimini is the city of Termoli where a beautiful, albeit contemporary Catholic church, has been built with a fisherman's theme. The interior of the church is decorated with tiles that form patters similar to those in the picture of St. Anthony lecturing to the fish.

My folks live on the GA coast in a very small town - we go to the Episcopal church with them on Sunday morning while we're down there (so as not to make family waves), and the little Catholic mission in town has its services at about the same time. So we go to Saturday vigil Mass or Sunday evening Mass down in Brunswick, at St Francis Xavier. You'd think with a name like that there would be Jesuits around, but it's run by Franciscans.

Guess who was standing there when we walked in?
