Having read much about Padre Pio over the years, I was happy to read, on his feast day, this touching story which I hadn't seen before. Thank God for his extraordinary life on earth and for his continued assistance from the heavenly realm. http://francismary.org/padre-pio-my...VZj9m9QINThJ1zzPZT5wnZXwxwAaI7LcQedUI6HDul1uA
THANKYOU for this. I have a great love for Padre Pio whose intercession healed my husband of a deadly illness. This is a powerful story.
Thanks AED, it is a powerful story. Characteristic of St. Pio, it has many facets and layers, though outwardly 'simple'. Wonderful to hear that you have first hand experience of his extraordinary intercession.
Yes. A friend borrowed from a prayer group a relic--a piece of Padre Pio's glove. We prayed the Sacred Heart novena he loved and the next morning the condition had altered with no medical explanation. The doctors were baffled. I wrote of it to Vera Calandra (since died) at the Padre Pio Center in Pennsylvania.
Beautiful story! Padre Pio did have the gift of bi-location while he was living. His visits to this little boy is so touching and just something that he would do from heaven. Padre Pio pray for us.
