A word of comfort to parishioners on disappearance of relic of St. Anthony

Dear all,

I have read where it says that parishioners at a Southern California Catholic church are praying to the patron saint of lost causes and missing objects for its speedy return.

And I say unto thee: be staunch of heart and strong of belief! The inconvenience is only a passing breeze upon the brow of eternity. Verily St. Anthony, the patron saint of lost causes and missing objects, will take care of his own relic.

That is, if the relic is not fake, of course. And re this:

People here are pretty upset but they're praying. They're praying to St. Anthony for the return of his own object.
No need, really. He knows and will take care.

"....a passing breeze upon the brow of eternity," eh?

There's a budding novelist here.

It was definitely stolen, but I can't recall from whom... the benefits of senility.
