The event that marked the priestly life and the process of holiness was the occurrence of stigmata.
Padre Pio arrived in the convent of San Giovanni Rotondo in 1916, where he remained until his death in 1968.
In 1997 Pope John Paul II declared Padre Pio Venerable.
On 2 May 1999 he was beatified in 2002 and finally Saint. |
