Praying with Padre PioEileen Dunn BertanzettiBe inspired by the life and spirituality of one of the great saints of modern times, St. Pio of Pietrelcina.

Questions for personal reflection or group discussion and suggestions for prayer and action are featured in each of the meditations. Among the topics covered are prayer, the Eucharist, suffering, trust, holiness, and humility.
