It’s The Feast of St. Pio of Pietrelcina (Padre Pio) St. Pio – Padre Pio – is remembered for his suffering, humility and miracles. He first received the stigmata while praying before a cross in 1918.  The wounds stayed with him for 50 years – the remainder of his life.  He was also blessed with the ability to bilocate, levitate and heal simply with his touch. In the 1920’s he started a series of prayer groups which are now number over 400,000 members worldwide; in 1956 he founded the House for the Relief of Suffering.  He suffered greatly in his life, but at his death, he wounds were healed.  Beatified by Pope John Paul II in 1999, he canonized him in 2002.
