The Church on Arch Street
St. Anthony Shrine, known as the Church on Arch Street, is a Catholic landmark in the heart of Boston. Established by the Franciscan Friars in 1947, the Shrine has been a welcoming refuge for nearly 80 years, offering a place of prayer, reflection, and community for all. Our ministries provide essential services, including: healthcare for homeless women through the Rita A. DiMento Women’s Medical Clinic, the Franciscan Food Center offering weekly and monthly food distributions, mental health and substance use counseling at the Mychal Judge Center for Counseling and Recovery, and dignified funerals and burials for the poor through our Lazarus Ministry.
