Szczegóły produktu

Saint Medal: Oxidized Silver 1" H

Francesco Forgione was born on May 25, 1887 at Pietrelcina, Italy. He was a devout child and became a Capuchin novice at the age of 15. He decided to join the order in 1902 and was ordained to the priesthood in 1910. From then on, he became known as Padre Pio. On September 20, 1918, Padre Pio was kneeling at a crucifix when he received the visible marks of the crucifixion. The blood from the stigmata had an odor similar to that of perfume or flowers, and Padre Pio received the gifts of bilocation, levitation, and healing by touch. After WWII, Padre Pio himself became a point of pilgrimage. He would hear confessions by the hour, reportedly able to read the consciences of those who held back.
In 1956, Padre Pio founded the House for the Relief of Suffering, a hospital that serves 60,000 patients a year.
He died on September 23, 1968 and was canonized in 2002.
Saint Pio is recognized today as the patron of those in need of healing. His feast day is September 23rd.
Saint Pio, Pray for Us.
