Lent with Padre Pio: Second Wednesday

"Following Padre Pio's death, Pope Paul VI told the Capuchin friars that what made Padre Pio such an important person to so many was his devotion to prayer and suffering. That falls right in line with Padre Pio's declaration during his life that 'I only want to be a poor friar who prays.' As unsettling as it was to him, Padre Pio became so much more to people through his life and ministry."

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