This year at St. Anthony of Padua, we are asking ourselves the question,

"What are we building?"

What are we building in Camden?

What are we building through our ministries?

What are we building in our spiritual life?

And then, we are asking ourselves,

“How we can give of our time, talent, and treasure to help build the Kingdom of God through the ministries of St. Anthony of Padua Church?”

You can find examples of how we are building the Kingdom of God in Camden by just scrolling through our photo page…but a few examples include:

~ The Community Garden- turning an abandoned lot into a source of hope, health, and community bonding.

~ The Ugliest House Contest- motivating members of our community to hold government officials accountable to help Camden become a beautiful and safe place to live.

~The Food Pantry- providing nourishment to those who would otherwise go without.

~The Sacraments and Fellowship- providing opportunities for spiritual growth that impacts our daily lives.

These are just a handful of ways that St. Anthony’s is building the Kingdom of God in Camden. In order to provide each of these things, and the many other programs that we offer, we rely on the generosity of people like you.
