Happy Catholic: St. Pio's Feast Day (amended)
-
One of my favorite stories about him happened during the early 1960s.
Italy was in crisis. The Red Brigade was sparking violence in Rome, and it was considered dangerous to travel around the country. For protection, people began carrying pictures of Padre Pio.
During this time, Padre Pio had to leave his village to visit Rome, and one of the other friars asked him, “Aren’t you worried about the Red Brigade?”
“No,” he said. “I have a picture of Padre Pio.”
