The relics of St. Pio of Pietrelcina — better known as Padre Pio — are coming to Maui and Oahu in November. Padre Pio is the well-known 20th-century Italian mystic with miraculous healing powers who bore the stigmata, the wounds of Jesus Christ.
Six relics, which have been touring the United States since last year, will be at Holy Rosary Church in Paia, 6 a.m.-9 p.m. Nov. 8, with a Mass at 6:30 p.m. celebrated by Msgr. Terrence Watanabe; and at the Cathedral Basilica of Our Lady of Peace, 7 a.m.-5:30 p.m. Nov. 9, with a Mass at 6 p.m. celebrated by Msgr. Gary Secor.
