Saint Padre Pio, also known as Saint Pius of Pietrelcina (†1968), was an Italian Franciscan Capuchin, friar, priest, stigmatist, and mystic, now venerated as a saint in the Catholic Church. Padre Pio became famous for exhibiting stigmata for most of his life, thereby generating much interest and controversy. He was both beatified (1999) and canonized (2002) by Pope John Paul II. His feast day is celebrated on 23 September and he is considered a patron saint of Pietrelcina, Italy, civil defense volunteers, and adolescents.
