St. Anthony’s Parish was founded by Bishop Dowling in 1910 to assist the Italian immigrants in Hamilton. Its first pastor became Rev. John F. Bonomi C.S. (Scalabrinian Father). Initially the masses were celebrated in a chapel at St. Ann's School (Barton and Sherman). On May 1912 the first church built on Clinton St. was dedicated. In response to the growing Italian community soon a new church was in need. In 1951, a new rectory was built and on 3 October 1954, the dedication of the new St. Anthony of Padua Church was presided over by Bishop Ryan with Fr. Mascari, the city's clergy and a multitude of Italian parishioners and friends. Since then many Scalabrinian as well as diocesan priests served the parish. Since June 25th Rev. Janusz Rogiński, SAC (Pallottine Father) is the pastor of St. Anthony of Padua Church.
