Prayer to St. Rita of Cascia

St. Rita, patroness of impossible causes, teaches patience in suffering. Ask her help with this traditional petition.

The Prayer

O powerful St. Rita, rightly called Saint of the Impossible, I come to thee with confidence in my great need. Thou knowest well my trials, for thou thyself wast many times burdened with the same. To thee I have recourse, to thee I consign my petition. O glorious St. Rita, obtain for me the grace I ask, if it be for the greater glory of God and for my salvation. Amen.
