St. Anthony of Padua Parish, located in the Brookland area of Northeast Washington, DC, also called "Little Rome" referring to a deeply diverse Catholic Community. Between 1900 and 1940 more than 50 Catholic institutions rented or owned property in Brookland including St. Anthony of Padua Catholic Church and the neighborhood still remains this way.
At this parish we celebrate Christ’s life and presence through vibrant and meaningful worship and a rich community life based on openness, unity and love. We proclaim the Good News through hospitality, education and evangelization. We respond in service to the poor and reach out in justice to those in our community and beyond in order to reach the final goal of happiness in Eternity with Almighty God.
