You believe in us and are ready to share in the experience of love and charity. Welcome to this family that is centered around the service of the poor, the least among us and the marginalized. Become a part of this journey, invest in its charm and sink your roots into the ground of charity. For us, you are not simply a supporter, but you are the engine, the beating heart that allows us to continue the mission of relief of human suffering that was so dear to Padre Pio. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Une Voix Pour Padre Pio<\/strong> wants to be a beacon of hope in the dim gloomy world of poverty. In the words of Padre Pio, \u201cIn the sick person lives Jesus and in the poor and sick person, Jesus is present twofold\u201d. It is there, among the poor and especially among the poor and sick that we wish our voice, your voice, to be heard. <\/p>\n<p>In working for the good of others and putting into practice a conscientious human charity, there are no barriers or distinctions. We are all on the same level. We do not judge another human being for his colour, his beliefs, or his political affiliations. In reality, we are forbidden to judge in any way, but, rather, lead us to try to understand and accompany another human being through the difficulties of life. <\/p>\n<p>I have often been asked, \u201cWhat license do you have to use the name of Padre Pio? Who authorizes you?\u201d My answer is simple: we are authorized by the love, in doing what we do, in the name of Padre Pio. He himself said, \u201cEveryone is allowed to say Padre Pio is mine.\u201d We love his spirit, his mission, his teachings, and from this love, we are born as children of a great saint. <\/p>\n<p>The center of our work is <strong>the relief of human suffering<\/strong>, the same focus that has characterized the earthly life of Padre Pio.<br \/>\nFriends dearest, welcome to this great family. I trust that our journey together will be a long and fruitful one. I embrace you all, one by one, and may Padre Pio always lead us by the hand.<br \/>\n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><strong>Enzo Palumbo, President <br \/>Une Voix Pour Padre Pio<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"gap-element\" style=\"display:block; height:auto; padding-top:30px\" class=\"clearfix\"><\/div>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">Video Presentation of the NPO in Canada<\/h3>\n<div class=\"row\"  id=\"row-794181279\">\n<div class=\"col medium-2 small-12 large-2\"  ><div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n<\/div><\/div>\n<div class=\"col medium-8 small-12 large-8\"  ><div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n<div class=\"video video-fit mb\" style=\"padding-top:56.25%;\"><p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1020\" height=\"574\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ma_BQj2-yvg?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<div class=\"col medium-2 small-12 large-2\"  ><div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<style scope=\"scope\">\n\n<\/style>\n<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div><!-- .section-content -->\n\n\t\t\n<style scope=\"scope\">\n\n#section_1900806984 {\n  padding-top: 60px;\n  padding-bottom: 60px;\n  background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/section>\n\t\n\t<section class=\"section\" id=\"section_124563148\">\n\t\t<div class=\"bg section-bg fill bg-fill  bg-loaded\" >\n\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\n\t\t<\/div><!-- .section-bg -->\n\n\t\t<div class=\"section-content relative\">\n\t\t\t\r\n\r\n<div class=\"message-box relative dark\" style=\"padding-top:30px;padding-bottom:30px;\"><div class=\"message-box-bg-image bg-fill fill\" style=\"background-image:url(https:\/\/unevoixpourpadrepio.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/carte-monde.png);\"><\/div><div class=\"message-box-bg-overlay bg-fill fill\" style=\"background-color:rgba(234, 119, 176, 0.9);\"><\/div><div class=\"container relative\"><div class=\"inner last-reset\">\r\n\r\n<div class=\"row align-middle align-center\"  id=\"row-295896081\">\r\n\r\n<div class=\"col medium-7 small-12 large-7\"  ><div class=\"col-inner\"  >\r\n\r\n<p class=\"lead\"><span style=\"font-size: 110%;\"><span style=\"font-size: 120%;\">YOUR CONTRIBUTION<\/span><strong><br \/><span style=\"font-size: 125%;\">CAN MAKE THE DIFFERENCE IN THEIR LIVES<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\r\n<div class=\"gap-element\" style=\"display:block; height:auto; padding-top:22px\" class=\"clearfix\"><\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n<\/div><\/div>\r\n<div class=\"col medium-3 small-12 large-3\"  ><div class=\"col-inner text-center\"  >\r\n\r\n<a href=\"http:\/\/unevoixpourpadrepio.org\/en\/support-us\/\" target=\"_self\" class=\"button white is-outline is-large expand\"  style=\"border-radius:99px;\">\n    <span>SUPPORT US<\/span>\n  <i class=\"icon-heart-o\" ><\/i><\/a>\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<\/div><\/div>\r\n\r\n\n<style scope=\"scope\">\n\n<\/style>\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\r\n\r\n\t\t<\/div><!-- .section-content -->\n\n\t\t\n<style scope=\"scope\">\n\n#section_124563148 {\n  padding-top: 0px;\n  padding-bottom: 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/section>\n\t\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":1559,"menu_order":1,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"page-blank.php","meta":{"give_campaign_id":0,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-1571","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"campaignId":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/unevoixpourpadrepio.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1571","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/unevoixpourpadrepio.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/unevoixpourpadrepio.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/unevoixpourpadrepio.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/unevoixpourpadrepio.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1571"}],"version-history":[{"count":8,"href":"https:\/\/unevoixpourpadrepio.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1571\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2094,"href":"https:\/\/unevoixpourpadrepio.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1571\/revisions\/2094"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/unevoixpourpadrepio.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1559"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/unevoixpourpadrepio.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1571"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
