  1. Obtain permission from your local Bishop where the designated Church is located.

  2. A priest must be the Spiritual Director.

  3. A reliable person serves as coordinator.

  4. Program: 1) Holy Mass, 2) Rosary, 3) Benediction and 4) Social hour. Meetings are to be held on the first Saturday of the month, if possible.

  5. Intentions: The Holy Father and our personal needs.

    It may seem difficult, but with the Lord, all things are possible. Padre Pio said, "When we meet the Lord, He will not ask us if we were successful, but surely He will ask if we tried." Give it a try. If you are nearby, you are welcome to visit The Padre Pio Foundation in Connecticut.

    God bless you.
