Saint Rita Novena – Patron of Impossible Causes

Who is Saint Rita?

Saint Rita of Cascia was born in Italy. She wanted to be a nun but she was encouraged to marry at a young age. She had two sons and her husband was killed in a fight. After her husband and her sons unfortunately died, she tried to become a nun but she was turned away at first because she was a widow. However, after some time, they allowed her to join.

She was a very holy person and was very prayerful and giving. She received partial stigmata while praying in front of the cross with a wound on her forehead as if from a thorn of Jesus’ crown of thorns.

St. Rita is the Patron Saint of difficult marriages, impossible causes, infertility, and parenthood. Her Feast Day is May 22nd.
