ST PIO ROSARY FROM THE ROSARY WORKSHOP - RDSP.2567, 2885, 2886 - Pio
CALLED THROUGH GRACE I, II, III
DEDICATED TO ST PIO OF PIETRELCINA ON HIS FEAST DAY
Born Francesco Forgione, in southern Italy (1887-1968), he became a Capuchin when he was 15, taking on the name of Pio.  He was ordained in 1910. During WWI he was drafted only to discover he had TB (Tuberculosis) and was discharged in 1917. He was assigned to the San Giovanni Rotondo Friary on the Adriatic Sea ...
.

.. After Mass on September 20, 1918 in front of the crucifix, he had a vision of Jesus and received the stigmata in his hands, feet and side. He is believed to be one of the first Priests in the history of the church to receive this gift.  The blood from the stigmata had the odor of perfume, like flowers.  The wounds disappeard on his death with no sign of scarring.  This was in keeping with what he had predicted 50 years before, that upon his death, the wounds would heal.He was known to bilocate (be in two places at once) and had the gift of reading the hearts of those who came for confession which he heard 10 to 12 hours a day.  He brought untold numbers back to the faith or closer to the Lord as he had the gift of knowing the right thing to say, encouraging and counciling each. + Over 500,000 came to witness the proclamation of Padre Pio to become Saint Pio of Pietrelcina on June 16, 2002.

"The life of a Christian is nothing but a perpetual struggle against self; there is no flowering of the soul to the beauty of its perfection except at the price of pain" (Padre Pio).
