         About the Church

St. Anthony's is the third oldest mission in the Springfield Cape Girardeau Diocese.  St. Anthony's is located in the small village of Glennon Missouri.  It was founded with a wooden framed church dedicated on February 3, 1906.  That first church was destroyed by a tornado in 1917.  It was replaced by another wooden framed church which burned in 1969.  The present church building was dedicated in August of 1970.  Father Bill Huggins is the current priest at St. Anthony's.  He also presides over the St. John's Parish in Leopold.  Mass is held at St. Anthony's on Saturday evenings at 6:00 p.m.  Directly behind the Church is a hall in which social events such as wedding dances and Church gatherings are held.  Also, a small cemetery is located just up the road from the Church.
