After
the serious accident that took place in the seventies and the extraordinary
grace granted by Padre Pio, Margareth Mathers (future Mother Mary
Magdalene) went back to San Giovanni Rotondo several times together
with English pilgrims. On one occasion she saw again Padre Pio,
as solid as living flesh, standing in front of this Confessional.
She used to tell everyone that he urged her to be "obedient". |
22
May 2007. Funeral of Mother Mary Magdalene in the church of Santa
Maria delle Grazie (San Giovanni Rotondo, Italy). People felt the
spiritual presence of Sr. Rita of the Holy Spirit. Mother Mary Magdalene
heard about her from her novice Sr. Maria Veronica, whose grand-parents
lived in Cercola (Naples) before the second world war and received
frequent visits from Cristina Montella (Sr. Rita). Mother Mary Magdalene
admired the heroical holiness of Sr.Rita. It was her wish to spread
the news on Sr. Rita among the English catholic, but she was prevented
by death. |
