  St. Anthony of Padua Church
  Dr. Campeau purchased land from Alfred Munger for $200 as the site for a new church and donated it to the Diocese of London.  The land fronted on Munger Street west of Victoria Street.
  
  In 1906, when Bishop EcEvay established a Catholic Church in Harrow, he placed the new parish under the patronage of St. Anthony of Padua.  Most people think that St. Anthony was Italian.  Actually, like many of today's parishioners he was Portuguese.
  
  Official opening of the New St. Anthony of Padua Chapel, Father Renaud's diary entry for November 17, 1906 reads:  "these last few days were spent in preparation for the blessing of the chapel.  In the evening of Saturday the 17th we had everything ready." As he stood on the slightly raised platform in front of the altar, he admired the embossed metallic ceiling that was a last minute addition to the builder's contract.
  
  St. Anthony of Padua Church is located in Harrow Ontario, about a 20 minute drive from Amherstburg.  Until 1933, it was a mission of the Basilian Fathers of St. John the Baptist Church in Amherstburg.  The first resident pastor of St. Anthony’s Church was appointed in 1933.  In 1957, the current church and a new rectory were built, incorporating the original 1906 chapel into the structure.
