00:00One of the most impactful saints is without a doubt, no questions asked, Padre Pio.

00:10And whether or not you personally have a strong devotion to St. Padre Pio, he is so impactful

00:16in almost everyone's daily life, whether they know it or not.

00:19And while he is known for many wonderful prayers, many wonderful things that he did, I personally

00:24find the words that he spoke at his death so inspiring.

00:28Before Padre Pio died, he just kept repeating, Jesus, Mary, Jesus, Mary.

00:34He was literally clinging to Jesus and Mary as he died.

00:37Obviously, we know we're called to pray without ceasing, and this is a great example of how

00:42we can do that.

00:44I know that multiple times throughout the day, if I'm stressed or overwhelmed, or even

00:48just I have Jesus on my mind or want to pray, in that moment, I'll just say, Jesus and Mary

00:52and Jesus and Mary.
