ST. PADRE PIO | EPISODE 1 | SAINTS AND STRUGGLES PODCAST

Welcome to the first episode of The Saints and Struggles Podcast. Brought to you by Carry Your Cross.
Follow us on Instagram @saintsandstruggles and @carryyourcross
In this first episode we venture into the life of St. Padre Pio - a champion of the Church who throughout His life dealt with many different struggles. Between his stigmata, life long illness, a time where he was shuttered away from public ministry and intense demonic attacks from the devil himself. Padre Pio had a life full of twists and turns on his way to Heaven. We are also joined by Vera Marie Calandra who received an incredible life saving miracle from Padre Pio while he was still alive. We will hear that story today.
