Hey Everybody! It's Fr. Edward

Episode 340: Padre Pio Appeared to Mary O'Regan, Now She Shares Stories and Insights About the Saint

Listen Later

In this episode of Hey Everybody, It’s Fr. Edward, I speak with Mary O’Regan, author of the new Sophia Institute Press biography of Padre Pio. Mary shares the incredible story of how Padre Pio appeared to her in a mystical experience that changed her life and set her on the path of researching and writing about one of the Church’s most beloved saints.

We discuss:

  • How Padre Pio mystically visited Mary O’Regan and what it meant for her vocation.
  • Why we affectionately call him Padre Pio rather than St. Pio.
  • Padre Pio’s promise not to enter Heaven until all his spiritual children are with him.
  • The healing Our Lady of Fatima received through Padre Pio’s intercession.
  • John XXIII, the Third Secret of Fatima, and connections to Padre Pio.
  • Why Padre Pio, as the first priest to bear the stigmata, remains so significant.
  • Practical ways to grow in devotion to Padre Pio today.

    • Whether you’re just learning about Padre Pio or already have a devotion to him, this conversation will inspire you to discover anew the life, miracles, and message of this extraordinary saint.
