Each of us has a special role to play in the life of the Church. Our task is to prayerfully discern what that role is.
To this day, Padre Pio is venerated for his holiness, simplicity, and poverty—three characteristics we can all try to emulate.
From a very young age, Padre Pio spoke of interactions he had with angels, as well as saints and demons. In fact, when he was a child, he often spoke of his guardian angel as his friend.
Padre Pio was a man who admired simplicity. He wholly lived the Franciscan spirit of poverty with detachment from self, possessions, and comforts.
We have all had moments in our lives when we feel as if God doesn’t see or hear us. Padre Pio was certainly no different.
