Padre Pio: A Catholic Priest who Worked Miracles and Bore the Wounds of Jesus Christ on his Body

Padre Pio was a Franciscan Capuchin priest who bore the five wounds of Christ on his body visibly for more than fifty years.  Padre Pio was also a seer, mind-reader, prophet, miracle-worker, confessor, mystic, ascetic, and missionary on a world-wide scale.

Padre Pio was the first priest in the history of the Catholic Church to receive the visible stigmata. He had the visible stigmata for over fifty years, and his loss of blood over the years was so great that, according to medical science, he could not have survived for very long – certainly not fifty years.
