Please note Fr. Stevens will be away on the following days:
Sept. 15, 16, & 17, No Mass
St. Anthony Parish Picnic, Sept. 13th
We warmly invite you to the St. Anthony Parish Picnic on Sunday, September 13, at 12:30 p.m.!
Come enjoy an afternoon of good food, fellowship, and fun with our parish family. Meat, buns, paper products, and water will be provided. Please bring a salad or dessert to share.
Lawn chairs and outdoor games are also welcome—bring what you can and stay awhile! We look forward to spending this special time together as a parish community.
40 Days for Life
The 40 Days of Prayer for Life campaign will take place September 23–October 31 at Planned Parenthood in Billings. Through public witness, we can help people remember that a child’s life is sacred. St. Anthony Parish will cover all Fridays from 11:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. A sign-up sheet is available in the narthex. Please consider giving an hour of your time to pray peacefully for the protection of life and for all those affected by abortion.
Remember the basket?
Every man shall give as he is able, according to the Lord Deuteronomy 16:17
It can be challenging to tithe on a regular basis as God calls us to do. We’ve made giving a little easier for everyone. Since we no longer pass the offering basket during Mass, Online Giving is a simple and secure way to support our parish anytime. You can make a one-time gift or set up recurring donations in just a few clicks.
Your generosity keeps our parish strong and thriving—thank you!
Parents please enroll your children and teens for the upcoming Religious Education year, which begins Wednesday, September 23. This year’s theme, “Growing in Faith, Rooted in Christ,” will guide our young people as they deepen their relationship with Jesus, learn the treasures of the Catholic faith, and grow within our parish community.
We are pleased to welcome our new Director of Religious Education, Sr. Helen Onah, who looks forward to walking alongside our families, catechists, and youth during this important year of faith formation.
Please register soon so we can prepare classrooms, materials, and catechists for the year ahead. We look forward to welcoming your family!
The Order of Christian Initiation for Adults (OCIA) is beginning September 12th, and we warmly invite those who are not Catholic to consider this opportunity to explore the faith.
OCIA is a process of inquiry, learning, and discernment for adults who are curious about Catholicism or thinking about becoming Catholic. Participants are guided step by step through the teachings of the Church in a welcoming and supportive environment, with time for questions, reflection, and prayer.
OCIA Sessions begin Saturday, September 12th, from 3-4pm in the Parish Hall/Classroom.
If you or someone you know is interested, we encourage you to reach out and take that first step. To learn more, please contact Fr. Stevens or Deacon Odermann.
