Padre Pio: His Life & Mission
$11.95 - 175 pages - Soft Cover |
Born in southern Italy in 1887, the Capuchin friar Padre Pio spent the
greater part of his long life in a remote mountain friary of that
region.
From the dramatic moment in 1918 when he received the stigmata, he
attracted
crowds from all parts of the world to the little town of San Giovanni
Rotondo.
Apart from the stigmata, he had exceptional charismatic gifts. He
read men's hearts, obtained temporal and spiritual favours for many and
possessed the most unusual gifts. Innumerable pilgrims travel
today
to San Giovanni Rotondo to pray at his simple tomb and the Cause for
his
Beatification was opened shortly after his death.
Mary Ingoldsby was born in Dublin in 1914. After six years in the Irish Civil Service she went to Rome to follow religious studies. Appointed in 1946 as delegate of a worldwide Catholic organisation, she travelled for twelve years all over Italy, with frequent visits to other countries. She met Padre Pio personally in 1956 and later spent two years in San Giovanni Rotondo translating his principal writings into English. |

The Poor Souls $3.95 - 36 pages - Soft Cover |
The original title of this
booklet,
Read Me or Rue It, is somewhat startling. Yet dear reader, if you
peruse the little book, you will see for yourself how well deserved it
is. It tells us how to save ourselves and how to save others from
untold suffering.
Some books are good and may be read with profit. Others are better and become must reading by reason of the counsels they suggest, the conviction they carry with them, and the urge to action they give us. It would be sheer folly not to read them. The Poor Souls: A Padre Pio Reminder belongs to this class. It is for your best interest, then, dear friend, to read it and re-read it, to ponder well and deeply on its contents. You will never regret it. Great and poignant will be your regret if you fail to study its few poignant pages. |
Send Me Your Guardian Angel $10.00 - 208 pages - Soft Cover |
As we
have read throughout this book, the part of the Angels in Christian
life
has it's origin in the relationship they have with Jesus Christ.
They show us God's greatness and perfection, symbolizing individually
some
attributes of this Infinite Being. In some, we see His power, in
others, His love or His strength. Each one of them is a
reproduction
of God's beauty; reflects all His perfection. Their relationship
with Jesus is that of being united with Him in heaven, in order to
adore,
praise and glorify the heavenly Father.
Hence, when we unite ourselves to Jesus, we join, at the same time, with the Angels to adore, praise and love God; thus we share with them in the Divine life. They long for our salvation so that we join with them in the Beatific Vision. |
The Holy Souls $12.50 - 222 pages - Soft Cover |
I must say that I am truly delighted to be able finally to present this
little volume to you, dear readers. I say finally, because it is
something which I have been hoping to realize for a very long
time.
Indeed I must beg the pardon of the Holy Souls for having been rather unfaithful to them, not because of any lack of good will but owing to the pressure of work. My dearest wish is that through these poor pages of mine the reader will become a little more aware of the plight of our departed brothers and sisters - our loved ones now in Purgatory - and that those Holy Souls will inundate the Lord, Our Blessed Lady and all the saints, with prayers on our behalf. |
Padre Pio: The Wonder Worker $12.95 - 210 pages - Soft Cover |
Padre Pio's Love of
"My dear
Little Mother"
"All graces given by God pass through the Blessed Mother." "I should like to have a voice strong enough to invite sinners of the whole world to love our Lady." "With what care she accompanied me to the altar this morning! It seemed to me as though she had nothing to think about other than me filling my heart with saintly affections." "Love the Madonna and pray the Rosary, for her Rosary is the weapon against the evils of the world today." "Some People are so foolish that they think they can go through life without the help of Blessed Mother." |
Padre Pio's Letters to His Spiritual Directors by Gianluigi Pasquale $12.95 - 193 pages - Soft Cover Pauline Books & Media |
This Rare Glimpse into The heart and soul of Padre Pio reveals the profound spirituality and humanity of the beloved Capuchin friar whom Pope John Paul II canonized in 2002. Beyond the extradinary events that accompanied Padre Pio's life, these intimate letters attest to his personal struggles, worries, temptations, and fears. Padre Pio suffered much, but hoped even more in the One he loved deeply: Christ Crucified. The letters of Padre Pio prove once again that "difficulties and sorrows, if accepted out of love, are transformed into a priviledged way of holiness..." (Pope John Paul II). |
