Lent with Padre Pio: Second Tuesday

"The day after Padre Pio's beatification, Pope John Paul II spoke to the pilgrims in Rome for the ceremony. He spoke of the many blessings the humble friar bestowed upon people. One thing he highlighted was the prayer groups that Padre Pio helped to form. Pope Paul VI had asked people to gather and pray together; in response to this call, Padre Pio encouraged groups to do as the Holy Father was requesting.

"Suddenly prayer groups began to form and to this day there are Padre Pio prayer groups throughout the world.  . . ."

Franciscan Media is offering a special Lenten series of meditations, "Lent with Padre Pio." The mediation for the Second Tuesday is as follows:
