PADRE PIO STATUE - 8"

PADRE PIO STATUE - 8"
Padre Pio was a holy Franciscan mystic who while praying before a cross on September 20, 1918 received the stigmata. He bore these holy wounds of Our Lord for 50 years until his death in 1968. We celebrate Padre Pio's feast day on September 23rd. Padre Pio is the patron saint of adolescents, stress relief, civil defense volunteers and of Pietrelcina, Italy. This is an excellent statue to add to your collection. Measures approximately 2¼”W x 8”H x 2”D. Made of a plaster resin mix.

These unique statues are made in Colombia. Each one is individually hand-painted by talented women who are either widows, single mothers, or those who are sole providers for their families. Slight color and design variations may occur.
