PRAYER TO PADRE PIO

Padre Pio, you lived in the century of pride and you were humble. Padre Pio you passed among us in the age of dreamed, played and adored riches: and you remained poor. Padre Pio, next to you no one heard the voice: and you spoke with God; near you no one saw the light: and you saw God. Padre Pio, while we were running out of breath, you remained on your knees and saw the Love of God nailed to a wood, wounded in the hands, feet and heart: forever! Padre Pio, help us to cry before the cross, help us to believe in the face of Love, help us to hear the Mass as God's cry, help us to seek forgiveness as an embrace of peace, help us to be Christians with the wounds that shed the blood of charity faithful and silent: like the wounds of God! Amen

The Curch of Saint Pio of Pietrelcina

Built to be able to best accommodate the relics of the Saint and at the same time to be able to better carry out the Eucharistic celebrations with particular turnout. The architectural idea is the result of the work of the famous architect Renzo Piano. The priest Fr. Marco Ivan Rupnik conceived the iconographic path by encouraging the faithful to rediscover the meaning of their life as baptized (the path of the new man) and to be guided towards Christ. The example of Saint Pio and the seraphic Father Saint Francis introduce the faithful into the mysteries of Christ

In the Ancient Church, St. Pio carries out most of his priestly ministry. Here he celebrates the Eucharist, and administers the sacraments, especially that of confession. Precisely because this particular mission of his ministry, that of confessor, becomes characteristic of all the work of the saint of the Gargano, in this place, starting from the year 2002, it is possible, for those who go there as a pilgrim, to gain plenary indulgence
