Since today, June 13, is the feast day of Saint Anthony of Padua, I decided to go back into my blog’s archive to give you the scoop on San Antonio’s patron saint.

It’s not too late in the day to make a pilgrimage to a nearby church with 13 coins to find your better half!

¡Viva San Antonio! ¡Viva LOVE!
