What is a spiritual child of Padre Pio? In Padre Pios own words: Once I take a soul on, I also take on his entire family as my spiritual children. If one of my spiritual children ever goes astray, I shall leave my flock and seek him out. These promises are capped by the Great Promise of Padre Pio which he repeated many times: I will ask the Lord to let me remain at the threshold of Paradise, and I will not enter until the last of my spiritual children has entered. There are five conditions for becoming Padre Pios spiritual child: !) To live intensely a life of divine grace. 2) To prove your faith with words and actions, living a true Christian life. 3) To desire to remain under the protection of St. Padre Pio and to want to enjoy the fruits of his prayers and sufferings. 4) To imitate Padre Pios virtue, particularly his love for Jesus Crucified, for the Most Blessed Sacrament, for the Madonna, for the Pope, and for the entire Church. 5) To be animated by a sincere spirit of charity towards all. If you have not already done so you can ask St. Padre Pio in your heart to be his spiritual child, or you can be formally enrolled.
