Prayer to Saint Anthony to Find What is Lost

St. Anthony of PaduaPicture source

St. Anthony, when you prayed, your stolen book of prayers was given back to you. Pray now for all of us who have lost things precious and dear.
Pray for all who have lost faith, hope or the friendship of God.
Pray for us who have lost friends or relatives by death.
Pray for all who have lost peace of mind or spirit.
Pray that we may be given new hope, new faith, new love.
Pray that lost things, needful and helpful to us, may be returned to our keeping.
Or, if we must continue in our loss, pray that we may be given Christ’s comfort and peace. Amen.

My 4 1/2 year old Persian some how got out of the house this weekend. She has always lived indoors and is declawed. We had a garage sale and so did others in our neighborhood, so I am praying that a stranger did not steal her. I am hoping someone in the neighborhood has taken her in and provided food and shelter. We made flyers and placed them in mailboxes around our subdivision on saturday. I'm hoping tomorrow (monday) I hear some good news! I could really use everyone's prayers, please!! Roxy is part of our family and I am absolutely heartbroken right now. I am so worried for her. Please pray for her safe return.

Thanks so much,
Jess

Jess, I am posting your prayer request right now. We are praying that St. Anthony will find and bring home Roxy, safe and sound.

Our cat Max got out of the house Sunday morning and we have not seen him since. he is a 2 1/2 y.o neutered male we adopted from out Vet 2 years ago along with his sister. He is usually an indoor cat with little extensive outdoor experience. We live in a heavily wooded area with many patches of woods and needless to say coyotes, raccoons and foxes. He was last seen on Monday by a gas station attendant but then went back into the woods. We have distributed 200 fliers,sent out a mass email with his flier, put his picture and information in the local papers, the online paper, local businesses and vet. offices along with the canine control officer, local police dept., school bus company, shelter and emergency clinics. Tomorrow I will go to the post office and ask them to post his flier in the break room for all the letter carriers to see so they too can keep a look out. I have been putting tuna outside for 2 days now and frequently call for him and in the woods. I feel I have done all that is humanly possible to get our beloved Max back.I am glad to find this web site as I will now add a daily prayer. I am asking for all of your prayers that he and the countless other lost cats find their way back to their loving families and that their journey be a safe one. Max needs to be home with the family that loves him, his sister, the rabbit, the dog, the fish and the lizard. Yes we love animals......and are devastated that he is lost. Peace be with all of you.

My Max is lost too....he is a beautiful 9 year old tabby. He loves being with his family inside, but sneaks outside as often as he can...he loves to hunt for little things (and bring them home as gifts for us), and protect our front step. I miss him so much....and pray he'll come home safely. He's been gone for 4 days.

Please pray for my cat Charlie, missing since 04/10/10. He is an 18 month old neutered male and has never wandered out of the garden before.

I am lost without him

Kodi and Dixie dug under the fence on Feb. 2 and we haven't seen them since. There was a sighting yesterday (2/13) but by the time we got to where they saw them they weren't there. It's been almost two weeks since they "ran away from home" and our family really misses them both. They are both rescue dogs and pray that St. Anthony will return them both soon.

Please pray for Figaro, my beloved maine coon cat that followed my dog out of an electronic doggy door on the evening of 3/31/11 and hasn't returned since. I am so very worried about him. I have posted signs, searched the neighborhood, put lost and found ads on several websites, and contacted the humane society and shelter. I pray that he is alright and if not, that I can forgive myself for not watching him closer when I knew he had learned to follow the dog out the doggy door.

Our cat Daisy Rose got out without my realizing it last night. She is an indoor cat, and we live on a very busy street. She is a very social, loving cat and my 11-year-old daughter calls her her "best friend". My daughter was abandoned by her birth mother, and is currently struggling a lot with that - adding the lose of her beloved pet is going to tear her apart. I feel like such an awful mother for letting Daisy get out when I know she means so much to my daughter. Please pray that Dairy Rose returns.

I have just returned from having lunch at home and my cat, Abby, is gone. She is an indoor cat. My niece was taking of my special needs son this morning and they left for a doctor appointment. I called her and asked if Abby was in my room when they left. She said there would be no reason for her not to be there, but Abby is missing. It is possible that my son could have accidently opened the back door and let her out without him understanding what he was doing because of his disability. Please bring Abby back safely.

Judy said...

This is Judy. I just sent a comment about my cat Abby missing. No sooner had I sent the prayer than my husband called to let me know she is safe and sound. We had workmen come to our yard and they must have scared her and she was well hidden indoors. Now that the workmen are gone, she came out of wherever she was. We called and called out to her and she did not make a peep. Thank you, St. Anthony, for working so fast! You do not need to poat my first comment, but you can post this one!

For the last three years he goes outside. I have a small doggie door that he and my other cats use to go in and out. He has never wondered far. When you call him, especially for dindin he comes running. You say his name or whistle his ears perk up. Non of my cats have every wonder off. Mavrick is a very loving, affectionate, and laid back. Like other when he isn't doing that he's on the hunt for mice, frogs, and lizards. He is always bring me gifts. At night when we go to bed, he will come to bed also. He has always slept at me feet. Once a day he got his kitty message. He loved his belly rubbed. he has been missing for 6 days. Ive posted ads in the paper, graigslist, tabbytracker.com, Facebook, made fliers, walked the neighborhood and talked to everyone, called shelters, vets office, and even did a petamberalert.com. pet amber alert sent out 100 posters to all pet businesses in the area and call 1000 neighbors in my area.

Please pray for the safe return of my beautiful Ragdoll boy Ouija (Wee-Gee). Today is Christmas Day and he has been missing from our home since Tuesday. I have searched day and night and have only gotten a few hours sleep over the past several days. He is such a beautiful kitty so I hope no one has taken him. If they have, I hope they've cared for him until I can claim him. He is a strictly indoor cat and I am so worried. He has all of his claws but is such a sweet baby.

and protect him from harm until he is found.
We join our prayers with St. Francis,
St. Anthony of Padua, and all the saints,
and pray in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen

Please pray for my cat, Ashlyn. She was out yesterday and hasn't been seen since the afternoon. We think someone took her into their home, which is frustrating because she has a collar and clearly belongs to a family. She is my my daughters and my cat and is very special to us. We just had to pray to Saint Francis for healing of Ashlyn's sister, Dusty, who was hot by a car and those prayers were answered quickly and has healed almost completely in less than 2 weeks.

My Dog, a small Yorkie by the name of Toto, has gone missing Saturday 9/22/12.

He doesn't run off but does wonder to the edge of the property where motorist and cyclist have tried to pick him up in the past, perhaps thinking he's lost. That morning I let him out and he didn't come back.

He's small about 10 lbs, 8 years old, and very well behaved. He loves to get into bags of any kind, he's a "traveler" with me so as soon as he hears a bag or a zipper he gets excited. We really miss him and want him back desperately- Please pray for his safe return quickly.

Thank you!

She has been missing since Sept 26th when she disappeared from our cabin in the mountains of Utah. She is a beautiful black and white tuxedo cat that is an important part of our family and we have missed her greatly. I will not lose faith that she is still alive and well but we need her to come home soon before winter arrives. We have prayed to St. Anthony and St. Francis in the Lord's name. Please help us send her love and protection and to bring her home quickly. Thank you for your prayers.
Beatrice.

Our cat Mae has not eaten in about a week. We have taken her to the vet and have almost reached our limit in funds that we can spend on this. She is staying over night and being given medicine and other fluids. We are hoping that we can bring her home and nurse her back to health. We understand that it may be her time but are willing to do whatever we can to secure a few more healthy years. Any help in prayer would be greatly appreciated. Thank you all very much : )

"Marley" my sweet, beloved little black cat, with a white fur "heart" on his belly, has been missing since the night before Thanksgiving (6 days now). He is declawed and defenseless. Not to mention it is freezing outside. I am worried sick for my kitty. I had a dream last night and my deceased Grandmother was cooking in my kitchen. I looked out my front window and up the driveway in the snow came my Marley. But it was just that...a dream. Or perhaps my Grandmother is watching over him from heaven.

It has been four long days and nights since our sweet pup BaileighJo became missing from our yard. She was secure on her line for not longer than five minutes, and poof she was gone. We have been searching daily, over 600 posters placed in shops, churches, and mailboxes.

"Jozie" is my daughter's pet. Earlier this month she had to accept the loss of her 20 year old companion cat SugarPlum. But now it is only a few weeks since she had to say goodbye to "SugSugs" and Jozie has vanished. Not one person has called with even so much as a sighting.

I have been praying through out the days through tears to God the Father, Mother Mary pleading as a mother to a mother, St Francis of Assissi to keep her safe from harm, and St Anthony for baileighJo to find her way to us and for us to find our way to her.

Please help us pray to St Anthony for the safe finding of BaileighJo by us for our daughter Annelore. May he find this too much for Annelore to bear, and grant her the answer to our prayers.

My two stays that I was feeding and taming, one young adult and one kitten, were lost when I had brought them to where I work in another neighborhood less than 5 miles from my house; they got free from the cage when I was adjusting it. I have posted notices almost daily, left food, tried trapping (caught a neighborhood cat but not mine), but have never seen them again. I am beside myself with sadness. I have asked someone to pray for them, and I request a prayer that they find their way back home, safely and on their own.

The whole community is searching for him.
He got out during a snow storm, there has been some sightings but so far no luck. I am so sad for him and his family.

Our cat Sugar did not come home as she normally did Saturday evening. I was really worried by the time I did a last check before dawn. I found this blog via a google search and said three of the prayers. I decided to make a final check and when I opened the door onto our deck Sugar came bounding up the steps and into the house. I fed her and could tell she was very hungry. I have no idea why she was gone so many hours. Anyway prayers sure worked for us this time. Have faith everyone.

I am so glad to have found this beautiful prayer. I am praying for all the pets mentioned above. Our kitty Violet got out yesterday. She's an indoor cat and has been with us for almost a year. We took her in as a feral kitten and she's slowly acclimated to our life and living with humans. We have her mom as well and the two are inseparable. She is hard to catch because she is still super shy. We pray that she is staying close to home and that she eats the food in the trap we have outside. It's our only hope. Her mom misses her as do we.

My prayers where heard. Thank everyone for the prayers and the safe return of my Bijou...On Tuesday afternoon I went to the Human Society to see if they received any lost dogs they did get one in. After giving the reception detailed description of her and a photo. She showed me a picture of her. I was told that she was picked up by a woman driving home. Bijou wandered over the other side of town. I plan on sending her a Thank You card for being thoughtful enough to save the life of Bijou. The area she was picked up at is very heavy with traffic and the worst could have happened. Thank You Esther for this blogg and I pray for the save return of everyones loved one.

Our indoor/outdoor cat, Al, has not come home in 5 days. He has never been gone this long and we are worried sick. He had a urinary blockage a few weeks back and I am worried it happened again and he couldn't get home, or that he is in someone's garage. We have placed flyers and ads and have been checking the shelter. We love him dearly and just want him home safe. Could you please add him to the prayer chain?
