Send us your intentions to be remembered during our Novena to Padre Pio for Our Children

In 2024, we introduced a new prayer initiative at the Centre: the Novena to Padre Pio for Our Children. The response was both humbling and overwhelming. Thousands of people from across the United States submitted names of their children, grandchildren, nieces, nephews, and other young ones in need of intercessory prayer from Padre Pio.

Once again, we warmly invite you—Padre Pio’s devotees and spiritual children—to join us in praying this powerful novena for all the children of the world.

This year, the novena will take place at our Centre from Thursday, April 23, through Friday, May 1, leading up to the commemoration of Padre Pio’s Beatification on Saturay, May 2, 2026. For those unable to join us in person, we will stream the novena prayers daily after the 3:00 PM Chaplet of Divine Mercy. You can watch and pray with us via our Facebook page at www.facebook.com/padrepioinc or our YouTube channel at www.youtube.com/@padrepioinc.

Please use the form below to submit your intentions to be remembered each day of the Novena.

Thursday, April 23 to Friday, May 1, 2026

Novena for Our Children Prayer
(Pray this prayer each day after mentioning the intention of the day.)
Heavenly Father, we ask Your blessing and protection upon all the children of the world.
Through the intercession of Padre Pio who was the spiritual father of many, grant that all children come to know, love, and serve Your Son, Jesus, in this life and in eternal life. 
May the promise of Padre Pio to stand at the gate of Heaven until all his children can enter come to fruition through his loving patronage.
We ask this through Jesus Christ Your Son and our Lord.  Amen
