Throughout his life, every time Padre Pio encountered something challenging, he leaned into God and found a way to reroute it into something good.

During the time when Padre Pio was under investigation and unable to say Mass, hear confessions, or communicate with his spiritual director, he spent his days patiently waiting—and praying.

For Padre Pio, dwelling on things that we can no longer control or change is not worth our time.

God, for Padre Pio, was not a foreign figure to learn about, but more a companion to be encountered daily on his faith journey.

Two lay participants who took part in the Franciscan synod were struck by different elements of the process that spoke to them.

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.
