Padre Pio devotions will return to Castleisland Parish Church on the coming Tuesday, September 1st. 2020 at 7.30pm via live streaming and without a congregation and the witness will be given by Stella Enright from Tarbert.

Stella spent her secondary school summer holidays as a volunteer at the shrine of Saint Pio in San Giovanni Rotondo.

Worked with the Capuchins

“She worked hand in hand with the Capuchin community there, where Saint Pio was a member for fifty years from 1918 to his death in 1968,” said Castleisland PP, Fr. Mossie Brick.

“Stella will share with us her in-depth knowledge of the healing saint of our time.

“The Saint Pio first class relic will be on the altar for devotions with a general blessing after mass.

Padre Pio devotions will be live-streamed on churchservices.tv/castleisland,” said Fr. Brick.
