Download or read book Padre Pio and America written by Frank M. Rega and published by TAN Books. This book was released on 2005-12 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fascinating life story of Padre Pio, with emphasis on his life as a seminarian, young priest and his early years at San Giovanni Rotondo. From this small, remote mountain friary, he became world famous and exercised unbelievable influence on the entire world, though he was soon forbidden by his superiors to preach, to correspond or to write. Covers his early work with Mary Pyle, and with the American GIs who came to visit him during WWII when his part of Italy was liberated. Padre Pio developed a special love for America and Americans - to the point that he wished that all Americans would become his spiritual children. This book demonstrates his amazing sense of humor, his prayer and fasting, his uncanny knowledge of people (even before they visited), and his profound supernatural awareness. In sum, Padre Pio and America will instill a profound awe in readers over the impact a truly saintly priest can have on all who come into contact with him!

Download or read book Christian Pilgrimage in Modern Western Europe written by Mary Lee Nolan and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2018-06-15 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christian Pilgrimage in Modern Western Europe is a commanding exploration of the importance of religious shrines in modern Roman Catholicism. By analyzing more than 6,000 active shrines and contemporary patterns of pilgrimage to them, the authors establish the cultural significance of a religious tradition that today touches the lives of millions of people. Roman Catholic pilgrimage sites in Western Europe range from obscure chapels and holy wells that draw visitors only from their immediate vicinity to the world-famous, often-thronged shrines at Rome, Lourdes, and Fatima. These shrines generate at least 70 million religiously motivated visits each year, with total annual visitation exceeding 100 million. Substantial numbers of pilgrims at major shrines come from the Americas and other areas outside Western Europe. Mary Lee Nolan and Sidney Nolan describe and interpret the dimensions of Western European pilgrimage in time and space, a cultural-geographic approach that reveals regional variations in types of shrines and pilgrimages in the sixteen countries of Western Europe. They examine numerous legends and historical accounts associated with cult images and shrines, showing how these reflect ideas about humanity, divinity, and environment. The Nolans demonstrate that the dynamic fluctuations in Christian pilgrimage activities over the past 2,000 years reflect socioeconomic changes and technological transformations as well as shifting intellectual orientations. Increases and decreases in the number of shrines established coincide with major turning points in European history, for pilgrimage, no less than wars, revolutions, and the advent of urban-industrial society, is an integral part of that history. Pilgrimage traditions have been influenced by -- and have influenced -- science, literature, philosophy, and the arts. Christian Pilgrimage in Modern Western Europe is based on ten years of research. The Nolans collected information on 6,150 shrines from published material, correspondence with bishops and shrine administrators, and interviews. They visited 852 Western European shrines in person. Their book will be of interest to many general readers and of special value to historians, cultural geographers, students of comparative religion, anthropologists, social psychologists, and shrine administrators.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Padre Pio is a masterpiece of God's love for us.With Padre Pio the extraordinary was ordinary, the uncommon was common, thesupernatural was natural, the unthinkable was routine, and the unpredictable was norm.It cannot be imagined a more complete, lasting, unwavering selflessness in a human being.From birth to death every day of his life was consumed by the love and imitation of Godthrough Jesus, consumed by the love and help for the suffering humanity of his brothers andsisters on earth, consumed by the love and suffrage of the souls in Purgatory to shorten andmitigate their pain, consumed by the love and obedience at any price to the Roman CatholicChurch.God lavished on him his gifts with an abundance that has no equal.And Padre Pio made good use of them, with healings, resurrections, levitations, prophecy,reading the hearts, speaking in tongues, reading unknown languages, spreading a scent offlowers, multiplying food in times of need, permanent visible presence of the GuardianAngel, frequent visitations with heavenly Beings, seeing the souls from Purgatory, knowingin details the status of the deceased, preventing bodily harm in bilocation, preventing caraccidents in bilocation, preventing destruction of things in bilocation, healing in bilocation,assisting in bilocation dying people for a peaceful trespassing.He did those things while ingesting minimal food, taking minimal sleep, having constantheadaches, enduring a lifelong chronic bronchitis frequently diagnosed as pulmonarytubercolosis, going through bouts of extremely high fevers and profuse nightly sweating.Padre Pio's distinguishing characteristics were kindness, joy, serenity, humility,modesty, piety, attitude of forgiveness, perfect obedience to all ecclesiasticalauthorities,He relived the Passion of Christ through thousands of Masses.By raising his right wounded hand He absolved millions of sins.He walked millions of painful steps on his wounded feet.His fingers went through millions of rosaries. His lips uttered billions of "Ave Maria".His body went through billions of seconds in pain for the wounds.Each and every one of His trillions of heartbeats was a grandiose symphony for the Glory ofGod.163Now He is in Heaven immersed in the joy of the beatific vision.In Paradise he continues to work for us, pray for us, intercede for us, distributing all kinds ofgraces for the asking.The only thing he doesn't do anymore is suffering.Thank you God for having given us Padre Pio.

This book was released on 2021 with total page 470 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In the nineteenth century a new type of mystic emerged in Catholic Europe. While cases of stigmatisation had been reported since the thirteenth century, this era witnessed the development of the 'stigmatic': young women who attracted widespread interest thanks to the appearance of physical stigmata. To understand the popularity of these stigmatics we need to regard them as the 'saints' and religious 'celebrities' of their time. With their 'miraculous' bodies, they fit contemporary popular ideas (if not necessarily those of the Church) of what sanctity was. As knowledge about them spread via modern media and their fame became marketable, they developed into religious 'celebrities'"--
