Throughout this entire year St. Anthony's will commemorate its 100th Anniversary. Our parish began as a mission of the Capuchin Friars from Sacred Heart. In 1923, due to the growing population of the Nepera Park seciton of Yonkers, Cardinal Hayes elevated the Francisican Mission to the canonical level of parish. The Cardinal appointed our first diocesan pastor, Fr. John Murphy, who served as pastor for 20 years.
St. Anthony's has faithfully served the people of Nepera Park for 100 Years. It has endured depressions, two world wars, a fire that destroyed the orginal church, and the ever changing cultural landscape. 100 Years of ups and downs, but still going strong! We hope you will join us to celebrate our 100 Years of Faith and Service at one of this year's Centennial Events.
