In this Advent booklet, St. Anthony Messenger’s executive editor Susan Hines-Brigger helps readers connect with the person behind the saint: his simplicity and lifestyle of prayer, piety, and poverty. St. Pio’s daily example as a follower of Christ helps guide readers through a reflective and prayer-filled Advent season. This booklet is sold in packs of 10. | |
