“The Mother of Sorrows is my confidante, my teacher, my counselor, and my powerful advocate."
Saint Padre Pio

The History of this Website

This website was created in October 2019 for St. Mary's Padre Pio Prayer Group in Vancouver by the Ministry Coordinator. This page shows all the prayer group's activities from inception in October 2016 up to October 2021. After the October 2, 2021 prayer meeting, the prayer group decided not to use a website. But this website is kept alive to provide information about St. Padre Pio, a wonderful spiritual Father to many.
