24 May 2009 – from MARIO GRISCTI

Beleive in Him because He is the Creator of everything and then, after God the Father, embrace Saint Francis of Assisi and Padre Pio and be intimate with this magnificent Saint. Magnificent because he was humble and always tried to do His will and not his own. Padre Pio is still a living example to all of use. Love him and pray to him. He will always listen to you and intervene for all of us.

14 Jul 2008 – from Andrea

Pio came to me in a dream many years ago and has been my patron saint since. Before that, I had never even heard of Saint Pio. Ironically enough, he came to me in my dream 1 year to the day after he was made a saint. What a miracle!
