Feast of St. Padre Pio: Exploring Saints Who Bear the Stigmata | EWTN News Nightly

About this sermon

On the Feast of Saint Padre Pio—one of the most beloved saints of the 21st century, especially in his native Italy—he was known for hearing confessions for 12 to 15 hours at a time, his patience, and his ability to perform miracles. He also received mystical yet real wounds known as the stigmata, or the wounds of Christ. Dr. Paul Kengor, professor at Grove City College and author of The Stigmatists, joins to explain more about the wounds Padre Pio bore. We also explore how many stigmatists Dr. Kengor discovered during his research. ------------ EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
