THE LIFE OF PADRE PIO
He was born May 25th,
1887
In Italy
The only Catholic priest in history
To bear the stigmata---the 5 wounds of Christ
He was given many gifts by God
Discernment of spirit, prophecy,
healing
And as a powerful intercessor for us
Before our God
He was
One of the remarkable men
Of the 20th century
A man with great faith
And spirituality
“Truly I say to you
Ask and it will be given to you
Seek and you shall find
Knock and
It will be open to you”
In the name of Father Padre Pio
We pray for you
To change
Each of us individually
All of us collectively
And return our world to God
“Truly I say to you
If you ask anything of the
Father
In my name
He will give it to you”
Padre Pio labored endlessly
For the SALVATION of souls
“Truly I say to you
Heaven and earth will pass away
But my words
Will pass away”
Padre Pio
Was carried home to his heavenly Father---all our Fathers
On September 23rd,
1968
He was canonized as a Saint on June 16th, 2002
By John Paul II
Dear Lord-----I pray------we
pray
To help us imitate his example of holiness and compassion
And one day---if it be your HOLY
WILL
Spend eternity with him and you
“This life is short
The rewards for what we achieve
Are eternal”
Padre Pio
And Dear Lord
We pray---that as Padre Pio lived out his life
On your words---that we do the same
In Jesus’ name---we pray
