Prayer to St. Padre Pio
A Prayer to Padre Pio
Beloved Padre Pio, today I come to add my prayer to the thousands of prayers offered to you every day by those who love and venerate you in Jesus' name. They ask for cures and healing, earthly and spiritual blessings, and peace for body and mind. And because of your friendship with the Lord, he heals those you ask to be healed, and forgives those you ask be forgiven in Jesus' name.
Through your visible wounds of the Crucified Jesus, which you bore for 50 years, you were chosen in our time to glorify the crucified Jesus. Because the Cross has been replaced by other symbols, please help us bring back the veneration of the
wounds of Jesus Christ, for we acknowledge His Precious Blood as true, a sign of salvation, cleansing and purification.
As we lovingly recall the wounds that pierced your hands, feet and side, like beloved Jesus Christ, we not only remember
the blood He shed as you also shed in pain, along with your smile, and the invisible halo of sweet smelling flowers that
surrounded your presence certainly the Scent of The Lord, symbolic as the perfume of sanctity.
Padre Pio, may the healing of the sick become the testimony that the Lord has invited you to join the holy company of
Saints. In your kindness, please help me with my own special request: (mention here your petition, and make the sign of
the Cross).
Bless me and my loved ones. In the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. Amen.
In Memoriam J.S.
The following quotes of Padre Pio tell how he looked after and loved his spiritual family:
'I love my Spiritual Children as much as my own soul and even more.'
'Once I take a soul on, I also take on their entire family as my spiritual children.'
'To my Spiritual Children, my prayers for you will never be lacking.'
'If one of my spiritual children ever goes astray, I shall leave my flock and seek him out.'
