"Padre Pio's disciples are His spiritual children who want to give special witness to faith in their lives.  They then become those who help the Holy One in His evangelization of the New Millennium.  In time, they may also form a new ecclesiastical institution with chaplains who coordinate them and give them a more adequate training for responding to this important responsibility and mission in the Church of God."

- Luigi Accept, Apostolic Nuncio (Rome, 16.05.2004)
