The
faithful would meet in the Sala "San Francesco",
making way for Padre Pio to pass, kissing his hand
and asking for spiritual and material help. Padre
Pio would give brief words of advice, make short
remarks or some unexpected gesture,
before
blessing and greeting everyone with "A good
day to you all!"
Padre Pio's Spirituality
Spiritual
school
"Let
us always trust in God, and may our lively faith and the comfort of Christian
hope assist us in this. We must pray continually, moreover, that peace may soon
smile on the nations. We should turn our thoughts to heaven, our true homeland,
of which our earthly country is but a dim image, and make every effort with the
divine assistance to preserve at all times, amidst happy or sad events, the cheerful
calm that becomes the true followers of the fair Nazarene" (Epist. I,
p. 596)
