NOVENA TO St PADRE PIO

St. Padre Pio had the stigmata and is widely regarded as a miracle worker.

ACT OF CONTRITION

 O, My God, I am heartily sorry for having offended thee, and I detest all my sins because I dread the loss of Heaven and the pains of Hell, but most of all because they offended you, my God, who are all- good and deserving of all my love. I firmly resolve with the help of thy grace, to confess my sins, to do penance, and to amend my life. Amen.

OPENING PRAYER TO PADRE PIO

 Dear Padre Pio, for 50 years your body bore the wounds of Christ and you suffered willingly as a victim for others. You never took off the crown of thorns yet always had time to talk, to listen and to pray.

Intercede for me now, for you once said “As the pearls are held together by a thread, thus virtues are held together by charity; as the pearls fall when the thread breaks, thus virtues are lost if charity diminishes.” Amen.

Padre Pio, Pray for us!

“Prayer is the best weapon that we have. It is the key that opens the Heart of God.”

Let us pray:

Almighty and eternal God, by a singular grace you allowed your priest, St. Pio of Pietrelcina, to participate in the mystery of the Cross of your Son, and through his ministry, you revealed the marvels of your mercy.

Grant that through his intercession we may remain one with Christ in his Passion so as to joyfully attain the glory of the Resurrection.

We ask this through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
