He went to the bishop for advice. The bishop suggested that he first go to the diocesan seminary & then, if he wished, leave & become a monk. Anthony followed this advice & enjoyed seminary life. He founded a society of missionaries, & after being named bishop of Cuba, he won renown for his pastoral zeal. After returning to Spain, he continued to work the Church.
