Lent with Padre Pio: First Thursday
The act of baring one’s soul and sins before God was extremely important to Pio and he expected that same respect for the sacrament from those seeking absolution.

The act of baring one’s soul and sins before God was extremely important to Pio and he expected that same respect for the sacrament from those seeking absolution.
Throughout his life, Padre Pio offered himself as a sacrifice. He was willing to take on physical sufferings in order to save the souls of others.
Each of us have had periods where our faith is shaken and not as strong as we want it to be. Given all that is going on in the Church these days, it is certainly understandable.
In the face of adversity, it can seem impossible to find any levity or something to smile about.
Throughout his life, Padre Pio dealt with various obstacles ranging from his health to people doubting his faith journey.
“Pray, hope, and don’t worry. Worry is useless. God is merciful and will hear your prayer.” —Padre Pio
