St. Padre Pio, Pray for Us!

September 22, 2014

On September 23rd, we remember St. Pio.

One of his miracles involved a little girl born blind without pupils in her eyes. After her visit with St. Pio, she was able to see, but the continuing miracle was that she still had no pupils! Let us ask St. Pio for his intercession for those with trouble with their eyes, and also for those who cannot see God’s truth.

Here’s a prayer written by St. Pio:

"O Lord, we ask for a boundless confidence and trust in Your divine mercy, and the courage to accept the crosses and sufferings which bring immense goodness to our souls and that of Your Church. Help us to love You with a pure and contrite heart, and to humble ourselves beneath Your cross, as we climb the mountain of holiness, carrying our cross that leads to heavenly glory. May we receive You with great faith and love in Holy Communion, and allow You to act in us as You desire for your greater glory. O Jesus, most adorable Heart and eternal fountain of Divine Love, may our prayer find favor before the Divine Majesty of Your heavenly Father. Amen"
