This Litany of St. Padre Pio is a prayer honoring St. Pio of Pietrelcina, the stigmatist priest of San Giovanni Rotondo. Known for his tireless ministry in the confessional, he also held deep devotion to Our Lady and the Holy Rosary, and cared for the sick and suffering through the hospital he founded. Composed by The Catholic Crusade, this litany draws on the true details of his life to offer praise and seek his intercession for those who turn to him in prayer.
