DAILY PRAYER TO SAINT RITA
O Holy Patroness of those in need, Saint Rita, whose pleadings before thy Divine Lord are almost irresistible, who for thy lavishness in granting favours hast been called the Advocate of the hopeless and even of the Impossible.
Saint Rita, so humble, so pure, so mortified, so patient and of compassionate love for thy Crucified Jesus that thou couldst obtain from him whatsoever thou askest, on account of which all confidently have recourse to thee, expecting, if not always relief, at least comfort; be propitious to our petition, showing thy power with God on behalf of thy suppliant; be lavish to us, as thou hast been in so many wonderful cases, for the greater glory of God, for the spreading of thine own devotion, and for the consolation of those who trust in thee. Amen.
DAY 1 PRAYER (For those whose hopes have been frustrated)
Glorious St Rita, you wanted to enter the convent but your parents arranged a marriage for you. We pray for those whose hopes have been frustrated at the critical moments of their need; those who are not receiving what they have hoped and prayed for. We ask you to grant them courage and a lively faith to withstand the challenge of their present situation and to recognize the will of God in all things. Relying then upon thy merits before the Sacred Heart of Jesus, we pray thee obtain for us our request for those whose hopes have been frustrated (now, mention your particular intentions).
We honour thy perfect union with the Divine Will, thy heroic sufferings during thy married life, the consolation thou did experience at the conversion of thy husband, the sacrifice of thy children rather than see them grievously offend God, thy miraculous entrance into the convent, thy severe penances and thrice daily bloody scourgings, thy suffering caused by the wound thou did receive from the thorn of thy Crucified Saviour, thy divine love which consumed thy heart, that remarkable devotion to the Blessed Sacrament on which alone thou did exist for four years, the happiness with which thou did part from thy trials to join thy Divine Spouse, and the perfect example thou gave to people of every state of life. Amen.
Say the Litany of St. Rita
Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory Be

MEDITATION
Early life
Rita was born in the year 1381 in the village of Roccaporena, near Cascia , Italy . Her parents, Antonio and Amata Lotti, considered her birth a very special gift from God, for Rita was born to them as they were already advancing in age. The day after her baptism, Rita was surrounded by a swarm of white bees, which went in and out of her infant mouth without hurting her. Rather than being alarmed, her family believed she was marked to be virtuous and devoted to God. As a young girl Rita frequently visited the convent of the Augustinian Nuns in Cascia and dreamed of one day joining their community. At an early age, she begged her parents to allow her to enter a convent but was instead arranged to be married to a cruel man named Paolo Mancini. Rita accepted her parents’ decision, resolved to see this as God’s will for her. Young Rita became a wife and mother at only twelve years of age and her husband was a man of violent temper. In anger, he often mistreated Rita verbally and physically. He was also known to pursue other women and he had many enemies.
Points for reflection: Rita learned to see the will of God even in the most difficult and horrible moments. Nevertheless, God had a better plan in the future to fulfill her initial desire, and this she gradually came to know by uniting her will with that of God every day of her life. Can we behave like Rita even when what we need isn’t what we are getting? How do we react when that which we so desire is unattainable at the moment and the situation changes its course?
