These anecdotes about blessed Padre Pio remind me of another.
Grahame Green the writer, a Catholic by conversion and belief stood in line, preparing inwardly like all the others were for confession with The Padre. This writer had heard of the Padre's levitation that sometimes took place when pronouncing the words of consecration HOC EST ENIM CORPUS MEUM. It was a long line for there were many wanting to confess . Out of the village up to the Monastery where he was ordered to reside by the frightened authorities. In the earliest hours of the morning the writer would be waiting several hours. Very serious demands are called for a worthy confession that must be humble , truthful and brief. Apparently Grahame overheard another pilgrim say that Padre Pio had eyes that could look into the past and would remind and demand the most secret sins committted. He got so frightened that he left the line.
