St. Anthony of Abad was also known as St. Anthony of the Desert or St. Anthony of Egypt. Blessings during the feast day of this monk take place on the Sunday closest to January 17th, the date of Saint Anthony?s physical death but celebrated as his birthdate in heaven. In Rome, an annual religious service called the Benediction of Beasts is performed near Santa Maria Maggiore. This benediction lasts for several days because citizens and visitors send livestock and pets for blessings at St. Anthony's shrine. The belief is that when animal attendees are sprinkled and sanctified, they receive the additional protection of the saint.
