Anthony Chiffolo (Compiler)

Book Description

Series: Advent and Christmas Wisdom | Publication Date: August 22, 2005

Padre Pio was one of the most beloved and intriguing holy men of the 20th century. In this book his own words lead readers to Christmas with a heightened sense of the sacred. Reflections for each day--from the first Sunday of Advent until the end of the Christmas season--begin with selections from letters and messages of Padre Pio, followed by Scripture, prayer, a suggestion for an appropriate seasonal activity, and blessings.
Advent and Christmas Wisdom is ideal for those who want to enter more deeply into the mystery of Christ's Incarnation as they prepare room in their hearts for his birth. During this joyous season readers can experience the special closeness to God that Padre Pio felt.

This review is from: Advent And Christmas Wisdom from Padre Pio: Daily Scripture And Prayers Together With Saint Pio of Pietrelcina's Own Words (Paperback)

This is an excellent book for Advent. I thoroughly enjoyed it and was disappointed when I got to the end of Advent season. I was looking forward to more words of wisdom from Padre Pio.
