He bore the stigmata for fifty years, heard confessions for hours each day and founded a hospital for the sick, the Home for the Relief of Suffering. He died in 1968 and was canonized by St. John Paul II in 2002. Millions still ask his help in illness and suffering.

Our Padre Pio pages are organized so you can go straight to what you need. Padre Pio Relics gathers every item that holds a second-class relic (ex indumentis, from the saint's clothing): medals, rosaries, vintage holy cards, a key ring and a small reliquary locket. Padre Pio Rosaries holds our rosaries in many colors, each with a relic and blessed by Pope Leo XIV, and two smaller pages pick out the wooden rosaries and the cloisonne rosaries. Padre Pio Medals offers relic medals, from tiny to large pendants, and medals in 925 sterling silver. Padre Pio Holy Cards brings together vintage holy cards from Italy, most with a small relic, plus old photographs and postcards.

You will also find oil touched to his shrine and stamp folders from his beatification and canonization, and everything ships from Rome.
