Cinema Club Feature Movie - Padre Pio


On Nov 11th, the Cinema will present the film “Padre Pio”. This movie captures Padre Pio's intense faith and devotion, and deep spiritual concern for others, as well as his great compassion for the sick and suffering. 

It reveals the amazing details and events in Padre Pio's life as a boy and throughout his 50 years as a friar, especially his wounds of the stigmata. The movie dramatizes the frequent attacks of the Devil on him, as well as the persecution he suffered at the hands of people, including those in the church.

The movie is 3 and a half hours long and therefore will start promptly at 4pm and have a brief intermission at the end of Part 1. The movie will be followed by a short discussion on how we can follow the saint’s virtues. The movie is open to all over the age of 15. Bring along snacks to share with others. Come and enjoy faith, fellowship and inspiration with your fellow parishoners.
