St. Pio of Pietrelcina, also known as Padre Pio, was canonized by Pope St. John Paul II in 2002. Padre Pio abandoned himself to God’s will as he cared for the sick and suffering as well as himself suffered from the stigmata- the wounds of Christ. Like him, may we be able to suffer well and carry our burdens with faithful love. St. Pio, pray for us!
