St Anthony of Padua Church is a Roman Catholic parish in the Archdiocese of Washington, located at 1029 Monroe Street, NE. St. Anthony's was created by Cardinal Gibbons with the appointment of the first pastor, Rev. Desire C. DeWulf

Founded shortly after the Catholic University of America, the Franciscan Monastery and the Dominican House of Studies in the Brookland neighborhood of Northeast Washington, St. Anthony's is the parish church for the section of the city commonly referred to as "Little Rome".[1]

History

In 1891, Antoinette Margot, an associate of Clara Barton and founding member of International Red Cross, moved to the newly developed Brookland section of Washington, DC.[2] She and her friend, Leonide Delarue, obtained the assistance of the head of the Ancient Languages Department at Catholic University, Fr. Henri Hyvernat, in the organizing of a new parish for the neighborhood surrounding the university. The first mass for the Catholic community was celebrated on September 19, 1891, by Fr. James F. Mackin in the home of Miss Margot and Miss Delarue and her mother, Theodoran, at 10th and Bunker Hill Road, NE.[3]Among the first parishioners were members of the Brooks, Julien, Yznaga, Gannon, Paige and Rianhardt families.[4]
