St. Anthony, the key to finding what is lost.
All the keys were destroyed except for the important and expensive car key.
Jane's St Anthony story
~
My daughter Claudia had quite a miracle from St Anthony last summer. She and her husband were down to one car and one set of keys. The duplicate set was lost several years ago. Don't ask me why they never got another set.
Anyway, she lost the only set of keys they had somewhere out where I live in rural NM. She was helping her sister set up a wedding cake up in the mountains. We tore the house apart. We looked through the trash and searched the yard and the road. The keys could have been anywhere between my house and the location of the wedding... about 10 miles down a country road.
We started praying to St Anthony really hard. When we went to mass on Sunday the next day, there was a Novena to St Anthony printed out and placed on the rail by the candles. I knew right then that our prayer would be answered.
In the meantime the car is sitting in my driveway. It would have been a small fortune to have a key made. My daughter came out to my house a few days later with her father in law to see if they could hot wire the car and at least get it back to town. While driving to my house she saw something glittery on the side of the road. In the high weeds about 5 miles up the road, yeah she found the keys. The only usable key was the actual car key. It worked fine. All the other keys were destroyed. The set of keys had obviously been run over many, many times.
I’m including a picture of the keys. No one could believe she found them where she did.
Thank you St Anthony. She's going to Mass in thanksgiving. Both things are a miracle!
