Novenas and Devotions
Novenas and Devotions
Three required to Madonna
In the pages of Journal of July 1929, Padre Pio listed the daily devotions that had undertaken to practice: "Not less than four hours of meditation, and those on the ordinary life of our Lord's birth, passion and death. Novenas: Our Lady of Pompeii, St. Joseph, St. Michael, St. Anthony, the father St. Francis, the Sacred Heart of Jesus, Saint Rita, Saint Teresa of Jesus. "
long as his strength allowed, the superiors he had reserved for the evening services of the Visit to the Blessed Sacrament and Eucharistic Benediction. It was a moment dear to her spiritual children, that Padre Pio also proposed other penitents with these words: "Jesus awaits you a prisoner in case ... is' \u200b\u200bto find him and let him company. " Also on Friday evening, while the other brothers went to dinner, he went to church and held the devotion of the Via Crucis.
In Pompeii, where he is venerated the Virgin of the Rosary, so dear to him, Padre Pio went three times: in 1901, with some friends at school, in November 1911, parent company of the Evangelist, Superior of the convent Venafro, the January 3, 1917, on a permit from military service. EA by novenas to Our Lady of Pompei, Father Pio cried the most because he cared about, including three solo, only two of which were answered.
First, the return to the convent, during his long illness in Pietrelcina, "God and the dear Mother of Pompeii, which have occurred at the novenas novenas, now there are more than three years, they know that what I did to be heard by a test yes. They only understand and witness the pain that shakes my heart and that oppresses me, "he wrote January 24, 1915 to Father Benedict. Then the exemption from military service, for soliciting the cooperation of Father Augustine
"I come to ask you, father, a favor that would be me you used the charity to begin as soon as the three novenas to Our Lady of Pompeii the daily recitation, during this period, dell'intiero Rosario. "
not listen to the request received instead of dying at a young age, as he confided to a colleague in 1960: "I played for 35 years, the novena Our Lady of Pompeii, asking for the grace to take me with him in Paradise. But then I stopped. " And the brother who expressed surprise at the fact that he had stopped praying, he who so loved the Virgin, said: "My son, I asked Our Lady for the grace to let me die, but did not listen. And when a mother who does not listen there is not nothing more to do. "
Another Marian devotion every night practice was the recitation of the Visit to the Blessed Virgin Mary, composed by St. Alphonsus Maria de 'Liguori: "Most Holy and Immaculate Virgin Mother Mary, you who are the mother of my Lord, Queen of the world, the Advocate, the Hope, Refuge of sinners, have recourse Today I, who am the most miserable of all. I worship you, O great Queen, and thank you for all the graces I have done so far, especially for having delivered me from hell, which I have so often deserved. " At these last words his voice cracked ever to tears, prompting the emotion the faithful in the church.
contemplating Mary, Padre Pio thought immediately turned to her husband, St. Joseph, whom he tenderly venerated for his sweet presence next to the Christ Child. The brothers saw him often remain ecstatic before the painting of the saint, who was hung in the verandah on the first floor. Once, his father called from Onorato to hurry to get to church, he replied: "How è bello san Giuseppe, lasciatemi stare qui ancora un poco...».
Tutti i figli spirituali venivano catechizzati a compiere bene le loro devozioni, che scandivano l'intero anno. Un quadro completo ce l'offre la testimonianza della signorina Rachelina Russo:
«Una delle devozioni che ci inculcava era quella all'angelo custode, perché è il nostro compagno indivisibile, colui che ci è sempre vicino dalla nascita alla morte. Un'altra delle devozioni maggiormente raccomandate era quella del mese di san Giuseppe, che tutti gli anni, sia in chiesa che in privato a casa, non mancavamo mai di praticare. E poi il mese di maggio, con novena e supplica alla Vergine di Pompei; il mese di giugno, con la coroncina al Sacro Cuore tutti i giorni; la devozione alla Madonna del Carmine, a sant'Anna, all'Assunta, la Quaresima di san Michele che comincia la vigilia dell'Assunta e finisce il 28 settembre; il mese di ottobre dedicato alla Vergine del Rosario e agli angeli custodi; il mese dei morti, e infine tutte le devozioni del mese di dicembre, dall'Immacolata sino al Natale e all'Epifania, con la recita delle 40 Ave Maria che cominciano il giorno di santa Caterina».
Anche l'amore alla Chiesa era intenso in Padre Pio e si incarnava nella devozione al Vicario di Cristo, in favore del quale elevava ogni mattina la sua prima preghiera. Durante la notte voleva che nella sua stanza fosse sempre illuminata - insieme con il quadro della Madonna della Libera, patron saint of Pietrelcina, and photographs of the parents - the image of the Pope
Father Tarcisio Zullo, during the Marian Year of 1954, joked: "Spiritual Father, if you were there St. Peter's Square and the Pope, I would curious to see if people - seeing you take two different routes - running over the back of the Pope or Father Pio ...». He said, "they should all be behind the Pope, because the first running back to the Vicar of Christ would be Padre Pio." And when the Pope's trip, which he normally did not care about the news Funicelli Pellegrino asked his father if he had listened to the radio news program, fearing some danger for the Pope, which he regarded as a family member.
In particular, he most loved Pope was Pius XII, who, moreover, did not hide his opinion: "Padre Pio is a saint, but we can not say, if no canonized him alive," he confided to journalist John Gigliozzi . At the beginning of the serious illness of 1954, the sister of Pope Pacelli asked Padre Pio, the Capuchin Superior through, "to formulate a prayer to the Supreme Pastor of the Church and the Church itself."
Padre Pio answered the call immediately:
"Of her who is the sister of the Holy Father, we understand the torment, but the agony of children below that you would not believe her sister. I offered my all to the Lord and my offer more ... Please, immoliamoci and trust. " Needless to say, as revealed in the press of the time Father Virginio Rotondi, the miraculous healing took place immediately!
