"A Mass said by Padre Pio is as
effective as a missionary journey,"
said Pope Bl Paul VI, because of
Padre's great love for Jesus
in the Most Blessed
Sacrament.
"My heart feels as if it were being drawn by a
superior force each morning just before uniting with Him in the Blessed
Sacrament.
I have such a thirst and hunger before receiving
Him that it's a wonder I don't die of anxiety. I was hardly able to reach the
Divine Prisoner in order to celebrate Mass.
Oh, how sweet was the conversation I held with
Paradise this morning. The Heart of Jesus and
my own, if you will pardon my expression, fused. They were no longer two hearts
beating but only one. My heart disappeared as if it were a drop in the ocean."
St Padre Pio of Pietrelcina, OFM
