The book shows us how powerful an intercessor Padre Pio is. His miracles and influence on others have brought many to the Lord. Loved the stories and his powerful love of the Lord.

I enjoyed this book immensely. I listen to it regularly doing my nightly walks. It always comes me during times of struggle.

Just WOW.❤️

I am a Catholic was lost but has been found.✝️ I recommend this book without reservation! As it is quite long, listened to it in little bits over the course of several months.

I guarantee that you will be moved by these amazing stories of how St. Padre Pio has interceded and continues to intercede on our behalf. I love St. Padre Pio, and I am so grateful for this collection of true accounts from people who met him, attended his mass, or prayed for his help.

God bless!

Inspiring and moving

I have known Padre Pio for a while, but the stories of miracles gathered in this book made me know Padre Pio more and have been in awe. My faith in prayer has not been as strong until I have listened to God’s miracles thru Padre Pio’s intercession even after his death.
