IMAGO SACRA MILLE GRATIARUM VALET. ("A holy picture is worth a thousand graces")................... This blog is a means to show some of my holy card collection along with some interesting thoughts and inspirations. "....artists have the privilege in the Church and throughout history, to open up so that people can see the mystery of God. The artist speaks, not just literally, but symbolically. Visual images, if well done, can move us. That's a ministry." Quote from Brother Michael Moran, C.P
As usual, a great thought for today, Micki. Helps me to remember that God doesn't allow suffering just for "the heck of it." It is to help me grow in grace and in love for others. And I need to be reminded of this daily.
does anyone know if Padre Pio's body was reburied on sept 23, 2009? I have looked everywhere since the 23rd and cannot find anything. I traveled to San Giovanni Rotondo, 4 months ago and I was told that his body which had been exhumed last April of 2008 would be buried at on his feast day.
Dear Padre, what an example for our Priests!
ReplyDeleteOne of our congregation met him!
Pray for us Holy Friar and help us to Trust and Pray.

I so adore our St. Padre Pio; when I think of him, it reminds me to be more humble and to trust in God's providence.
