Saint Anthony of Padua Roman Catholic Church is situated high on a hill overlooking Wilmington. It is a handsome church on the outside and very beautiful on the inside. Next to it is a manse for the priests and nearby is a fine elementary school. Several blocks away is an upper school that is also affiliated with the church. The church became famous in the 1950s when Grace Kelly and her future husband attended services there. The priest who was in part responsible for their meeting and later marrying, Father Francis Tucker, later moved to Monaco where he served as Princess Grace's confessor. Father Tucker attended seminary with the future Pope Pius XII, with whom he remained close friends for the rest of their lives. The church has a celebrated week-long Festa in June each year, ending on St. Anthony's feat day. There is an extensive offering of Italian foods and crafts as well as rides and other things for children and adolescents. The church is an important part of the Wilmington community and contributes substantially to its culture and welfare.

This church is very special to me as it was our family that donated the land for the church to be built on, we even have a few buried here, the name of Stalcup, Stallcop, Stallcup. The church is just beautiful and those that are caring for it are very informative. They have the Stalcup History in their library. It's just a very cool place to visit and to ring the bell. The actual visit was in 2010, Tripadvisor doesn't give you the option to choose the correct date.

This is a beautiful and historic church, nestled near the boardwalk at the edge of a little charming neighborhood. The ushers are warm and welcoming and the Pastor is friendly and outgoing. The place does fill-up quickly, so be sure to get there early!
