The Sprirt of St. Anthony

The Spirit of St. Anthony on the Desert is something very real to us. This spirit is what new and long-time members express when asked what makes St. Anthony so special. It can be felt the minute enter our doors, and you take it with you when you leave.

Central to our spirit are the people who represent a diverse group of backgrounds, ages, incomes and social views. We form a montage that is unique to St. Anthony. Deep and meaningful friendships grow and are nurtured through the many opportunities for worship, fellowship, study and outreach. Joining us together is the deeply meaningful worship service of the Episcopal Church.

Our Hope for the Future
We feel that our past is a strong foundation for our future. We are mindful of the need to move forward by answering God's call to us and allowing the Holy Spirit to work in and through us. By asking what it is that God wants us to do, instead what it is that we want to do, we feel our journey together will continue to nurture and support not only us, but also the communities in which we live.
