The Life and Message of Our Beloved Saint Padre Pio (2016)

Filmed on location from the Monastery of the Capuchin Friars of San Giovanni Rotondo, this exclusive video offers a documentary, recognized and approved by the Vatican, about the life and message of Our Beloved Saint Padre Pio as told by the Capuchin Fra Francesco Di Leo, the Rector of San Giovanni Rotondo's Church. The devotion of Jesus, the love of the people, and the adoration of Saint Francesco signed the path that Fracesco Forgione crossed during his life to become Saint Padre Pio, one of the most important icons of our days. This documentary is a trip along the places where the Saint lived until the night of 22nd September 1968. The Padre Pio's stigmas, the construction of the church Santa Maria delle Grazie (Our Lady of Grace), the last liturgy, the exhumation of the Saint's body: these are moments that the documentary narrates through the eyes and the stories of the Rector of the San Giovanni Rotondo's Church, the Capuchin Fra Francesco Di Leo. An itinerary through the convent, in places closed to the public where we can find until today the atmosphere of mystery and sainthood that Padre Pio left us.
