Padre Pio wants to tell you this today December 22th. Thought and prayer

Baby Jesus is the star that guides you along the desert of present life.

O Padre Pio of Pietrelcina, who nourished a great devotion to the Souls of Purgatory for which you offered yourself as an atoning victim, pray to the Lord that he will instill in us the feelings of compassion and love that you had for these souls, so that we too are able to reduce their times of exile, making sure to earn for them, with sacrifices and prayers, the holy indulgences they need.

“O Lord, I beg you to want to pour over me the punishments which are prepared for sinners and purging souls; multiply them above me, as long as you convert and save sinners and free the souls of purgatory soon ». Father Pio
