Venerate St. Padre Pio's Relics on Nov. 23
Within a month of Padre Pio’s ordination (Sept. 7, 1910), as he was praying, Jesus and Mary appeared to him and gave him the wounds of Christ, the Stigmata. He asked Jesus to take away "the annoyance," adding, " I do want to suffer, even to die of suffering, but all in secret.” While that didn’t happen, Padre Pio bore the wounds of our Lord until the miraculously disappeared at the moment of death.
We will be celebrating his life and faith on this upcoming occasion:
