St Anthonys
St Anthonys (Red)
The Servite Friars look upon Father James Mary Keane as their founder in Australia. He arrived in Perth in 1951 and in December of that year, he accepted - on behalf of the Order - the care of St. Anthony's Parish, Wanneroo. A Priory was built there in 1952 and this became the Motherhouse of the Australian Servite Foundation. For some years, it was used as the residence for the Sisters of Mercy and later for the Servite Sisters who taught in the parish school.
