Book Description
One part biography, one part prayer book, The Life and Prayers of Saint Padre Pio is an essential for any Christian. The foundation for Padre Pio's work in the world was love. His love of God became intertwined with his love of humanity so that the two became inseparable and unwavering. Padre Pio is notable not for his erudition or even his teachings, per se, but for the man he was and the intercessor he continues to be. Pio gave himself to Christ as a spiritual victim for the souls of sinners. With sweetness, humility, and good cheer, he brought everyone who encountered him closer to Christ. People who met him understood immediately that they were in contact with a Christlike figure. Those who attended his Mass and saw his union with the divine felt as though they had witnessed in person Christ's Passion on the Cross. During his lifetime, Padre Pio brought vast numbers back to devotion to Christ, and, as he himself foretold, in death he has been able to do still more.

Meditation Prayer on Mary Immaculate

Author: Padre Pio

Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 31

Book Description
The Meditation Prayer on Mary Immaculate is one of Padre Pio’s few published writings, penned before he was forbidden by the Church to publish or to engage in correspondence—this for fear a cult would arise around him. Here we encounter a profound spiritual penetration into the mystery of Mary’s unique and sublime role in our salvation. Though brief, it can be read over and over with great benefit since it is-–just as the title suggests—both a meditation and a prayer on the meaning of Mary. This booklet also contains a brief sketch of Padre Pio’s life and numerous edifying pictures of this saintly stigmatist.

Book Description
Here is a sampling of just some of the amazing wonders you will read in this book: His first recorded miracle; causing unauthorized photos of himself to come up blank; miraculously preventing auto accidents; his involvement in near-death experiences; visits from souls in Purgatory; encounters with angels; reading peoples' thoughts and souls leading to the conversion of stubborn unbelievers; his appearance to a Pope in bilocation; some saw him crowned with thorns, others saw him looking like Jesus; it even seemed he could manipulate time; he predicted that he would work an Easter miracle; assisted an Anglican priest in his healing ministry after his own death; calling forth fire; he offers the praises of all creation to the creator; he experienced the pains of purgatory; cures of desperately and terminally ill persons, sometimes by appearing at their bedside in bilocation; the power of his relics. His supernatural gifts are many and profound, and as you will see, some of them cannot fit into any known categories.
