Padre Pio

Pray, hope and don’t worry.

I pray (I’m not the world champion!), I never stop hoping, but I’m a world champion worrier.

As the song goes, ‘two out of three ain’t bad’!

But I must continue to catch myself on and fulfil the third part of this complete life plan.

Saint Pio, pray for us.

 

Imagine trying to spoof or equivocate to that man.

 

I often joke that I come from a family of Olympic level worriers. It does keep me praying.

 

I know. Those eyes!

 

Same.

 

I'm begging Padre Pio for a favor for my family. Please if anyone is inclined, while you're praying to Padre Pio for his feast day, will you please ask him to obtain my petition for me?

 

On the Seraphic Mass website, they are offering enrollment in a 900 Mass Novena to Padre Pio beginning tomorrow on his feast day. !!!!

 

Will do.

 

Will do!

 

Thank you, I signed up!

 

It helps their Franciscan missionary priests around the world.

 

I frequently request Masses on their site for my family members for birthdays and such, but I didn't know about the 900 Masses Padre Pio novena!

Pray, hope and don't worry. - St. Pio

Worrying is the assumption that God will fail.
