Medjugorje Visionary Speaks At Shrine Of Saint Padre Pio

.
JAN 16 (Medjugorje Today)

 The shrine of Saint Padre Pio will host Medjugorje visionary Mirjana Dragicevic-Soldo on February 24. Mirjana will be one of nine speakers for an all-day event at San Giovanni Rotondo where Saint Pio lived and preached for most of his time as a priest.

One of the most revered and beloved saints of the 20th century, but also a priest who was persecuted and met with fierce opposition for much of his time on earth, Saint Pio bore the stigmata, was known for reading souls in and outside his confessional, and also for the gift of bilocation. He was canonized by Pope John Paul II in 2002.

Saint Pio further had the gift of prophecy, and his 1968 statement to Bosnian pilgrims, "The Madonna will soon visit your country", has been tied to Medjugorje.
