St. Anthony Catholic Church
   1906  Celebrating 104 Years  2010

  
Welcome to Our Website!!
Welcome to the website of St. Anthony Parish.

The spirit of the great Saint from Padua permeates our parish as we attempt to follow with him in the spirit of Jesus, Savior and Lord of our lives.

Founded in 1906 to serve the ever growing influx of Italian immigrants to the Southside of Des Moines, St. Anthony’s now comprises some seventeen hundred families of a variety of cultural and ethnic backgrounds, while continuing to recognize its historic identity as an Italian parish.

A multitude of ministries are offered here as we together attempt to build a vibrant parochial life. Our Catholic School serves as another fundamental building block of our identity. We create within its walls a Catholic culture, providing excellence in academics as well as a spirituality which helps equip our youngsters with the tools to be committed Catholic adults.

You will find on this website information about our ministries, programs, people, events, and much more. Be sure to secure an account for personalization by clicking on the "Create an Account" link located directly left of this paragraph under "Your Account".

St. Anthony parish, grounded in our Catholic tradition, but ever open to the promptings of the Holy Spirit to build for a more glorious future, welcomes you.

God’s Blessing to you.

Monsignor Frank E. Chiodo
Pastor

If you'd like some assistance in calculating proportional giving, here is a valuable website:nacba

Your will can be a testimony to your faith. Include St. Anthony Foundation. More than half the people in this country die without valid wills. Do you know why? Procrastination! Don’t wait! (And don’t forget St. Anthony Foundation.)When you make your will, please consider naming St. Anthony Foundation as the final beneficiary.

Jesus Had a will. Not the conventional kind, but he left explicit instructions for the distribution of his love in the Scriptures. It is all spelled out in the New Testament. How about your will? Is your love for God spelled out through the gifts you make?
