During his long service years in Jordan, Fr. Anton built several shrines dedicated to the Virgin Mary, including those in Misdar, Marka and Swefiyeh. He also built a shrine to Mar Charbel in Swefiyeh. On 19/9/2021, the "Casa di San Antonio di Padova per i sacerdoti", a house to care for the elderly priests of the Patriarchate, was inaugurated by His Beatitude Pierbattista Pizzaballa. The budget of this building, which was built by Fr. Anton, was completely covered from local donations from the Swefiyeh parish, similar to the many other works done in the various parishes.
