Are you facing a seemingly 'impossible' situation? Turn to St. Rita today!
"Like Elizabeth Ann Seton, Rita of Cascia was a wife, mother, widow, and member of a religious community. Her holiness was reflected in each phase of her life."
When she was young, she was pressured to marry and cruel man, who later died in a brawl. And when her two sons had dies, she entered the Augustinian order in Cascia.
She is said to have received the wounds of Christ on her forehead, as she often meditated on the passion. She was canonized in the 1900s by Pope Leo XIII.
