As I comment here, it is 9/23/2021, the feast day of Padre Pio and the sixth anniversary of the death of my spouse, Cynthia Alexa who died of cancer. Please pray for her soul and all those who have died of cancer. May she Rest In Peace. Padre Pio watch over Cynthia. Help her into heaven.

How does one pray to Padre Pio, I mean do you simply ask him for him to ask God for you ? Do you just talk to him ? I am a sinner, and I know stories of him when he was in confession simply closing the confessional curtain on people. I am a sinner, and at times I feel like God has abandoned me. That Padre Pio will close the curtain on me as well if I pray to him. I am a sinner asking Padre Pio for his friendship, for his intercession. I hate asking for help with my health issues and emotional health when so many others deserve help over me .

@@46GarageUSA I’m a sinner too. I’m trying to be a better person and struggle with my conscious over past sins and trying to live an honest Catholic life but still sin each day. You are not alone but we are blessed to be Catholic and to have the gifts of the sacraments, so I would recommend confession. My sister bought me a St Pio candle and it has this prayer, perhaps it may help you; Oh Jesus, full of Grace and charity, victim for sinners, so impelled by Your love of us that You willed to die on the cross, I humbly entreat Thee to glorify in heaven and on earth St. Pio of Pietrelcina, who generously participated in Your sufferings, who loved Thee so much and laboured so faithfully for the glory of Your Heavenly Father and for the good of souls. With confidence, I beseech Thee to grant me, through his intercession, the grace of ……. which I ardently desire. Amen I hope this helps 🙏🏼

Padre Pio told an American soldier during WWII, “When the war is over and you return to the United States, tell the American people that for those who would like me to be their spiritual father, my answer is yes. I accept all Americans as my spiritual children. I only have two requirements-that they lead very good Catholic lives and that they regularly receive the sacraments.” St. Padre Pio, pray for us!

You have helped me so much in my religious life that I can’t even say. I went to confession and told things I believed would go to grace with me. Now I have to work on going to church every week. I have been scared since I did that confession. I also want to do regular confessions that you lead us through on First Friday’s and First Saturday’s. I also don’t believe I would have made it through the deaths of my grandson, my daughter, my sister, and my mother if I had not been learning our faith through you and Fr.

I first encountered Padre Pio ~1976 as a high school sophomore. My parents had had a subscription to Readers' Digest, & at some point that included receiving periodic biographical books the company produced. I found among them a book on Padre Pio & was intrigued. At the time I was required to do a book report for my 10th grade public-school English class, & as the Padre Pio biography was not on the approved list, I sought & was granted special permission to do my report on that. Bonus: I believe I got an "A" on that assignment! Bigger BONUS: I was forever captivated by Padre Pio!!! Thank you, Fr. Alar for another wonderful presentation. Padre Pio makes my heart happy!

I turned to him for help and he has been so fast and so powerful and so amazing every time I ask for help I can no longer be afraid or doubt him anymore. All I do is say Saint Padre Pio pray for us, and I repeat it several times, he is so loving and caring one of Gods instruments to demonstrate us his love for us , thank you for your prayers Saint Padre Pio you are amazing

Our sweet priest got mixed up and gave my husband Padre Pio as his patron saint too haha. Im 25 but have been sick many years with Lyme disease, mold toxicity and other issues. I wasnt healed all at once but I have great hope Im being healed one step at a time! I feel the best I have in years and have made good progress in treatment. I really believe Padre Pio was praying and suffering for mine and my husbands conversion. We had grown up so lukewarm in our protestant faith and were so far from God, we had so many miracles along the way. Our Lady had a very special hand in it all. Our lives are still being changed and healed through the sacraments, so very thankful! 🤍 Your talks are such a blessing Father, God bless!

My mom has had 3 miracles to tell from her life.In the year 1961 when mom was in High school in St Francis Convent Coimbatore India, the mother superior of the convent was always writing letters to Padre Pio.On the fast approaching board exams the mother wrote to Padre Pio and asked him to pray for the success of the students.He said he would but also mentioned that all but one student would fail the exam.But he also told her that she will get a sign to know beforehand who it will be.Mother kept this to herself and did read the sign when one of the students refused to sit for the group photograph of the whole graduating students. She cried and screamed when anyone tried to coax her to join.She did fail her High school exam much to everyone's surprise because in previous tests she was always the topper in class.Mother shared her story to the others much later.

What a fascinating Saint Padre Pio is. Some friends and I were discussing him this afternoon so as long as I shared it with them, I thought I would listen again. I actually have been enjoying many of the early talks they never get old. God bless you Father Chris.

I’m very grateful Fr. Chris for the beautiful sharing of Padre Pio’s life, his stigmata and miraculous deeds. They were all great and left a vivid memory in my life. But, the most precious moment for me is when he officiated the Mass. I was so captivated by his looks as he gazed on the chalice. I felt a tender exchanged of love between him and Jesus, they know each other very well. Oh, how I desire such intimate union with Jesus, but only when I’m completely detached from the world to have my Lord, Thank you, Fr. Chris. God bless us.

Very well said.the intimate relationship with Jesus Christ is an amazing gift to look forward to in our eternal home, but I want to start it here on this earth. I ask Padre PIO to intercede for me & my family, my loved ones to detach us from worldly things. May our Lord Jesus Christ embrace us all and grant us His Grace & Mercy.

Hi Fr. Chris, my interest was piqued by Padre Pio, so I finally listened to your talk about him. I also learned about the most painful wound of the Lord. I am a devotee of the Divine Mercy and I used to go there to Stockbridge on His feast and it stopped when I became disabled. But I never stopped praying his devotion everyday at 3pm. Now, I will pray the prayer to the shoulder wound of Jesus Christ. Thanks for your enlightening talk today!

St Pio is one awesome saint! I was at the National Shrine of St Pio in Barto, PA before it was consecrated and many times after. The family picked that property because it was as close to how it looked where St Giovanni Rotunda was located. You will love it! You will know it is sacred ground!! They have in their museum St. Pio’ s car, a replica of how his cell looked, and many other personal items of St Pio. In addition, you will see in the museum St JP II’s Chalice of the one he used at the Mass celebrating St Pio’s sainthood in Rome. It’s a masterpiece. What a gift of Faith this beautiful place is. I encourage all who can, go. Your soul will be nourished by Christ’s Peace, His Love and Mercy. Without a doubt, your Prayers will be answered then or in time. Jesus, I trust in you.
