Santa Rita

George's miraculous recovery

In 1944, when the Second World War was in full swing, little Giorgio was only 9 months old and fell ill with enteritis. At that time it was difficult if not impossible to find medicines to cure this disease. In fact, many children suffering from the same disease died and Giorgio was on the same path, since he hadn't fed himself for a week now.

The mother in desperation thought of relying on Santa Rita, starting to recite the Ninth and promising him that in case of recovery he would take him to Cascia for the First Communion.

Al third day of prayer she dreamed that her son was drowning and that she was left motionless thinking that if she jumped and drowned, the other 2 daughters would be left alone. Suddenly she saw a doggie who grabbed Giorgio by the neck and carried him to the shore where Santa Rita, dressed in white, was waiting for him.

Sanctuary

The woman woke up with a start and ran towards her son's bed, who was resting peacefully. From that night Giorgio's conditions began to improve, until healed completely.

Giorgio's mother kept her promise to the Saint and on the day of communion she took her son to Cascia. Giorgio was very happy and from that day he always carried Saint Rita in his heart.

Because Santa Rita is considered the saint of impossible causes

Santa Rita is considered the saint of impossible causes because during his life he had to face several situations that seemed insurmountable. For example she was forced to marry against her will, she had to endure a abusive husband and had to helplessly witness the death its two sons.

Despite all this, he never lost the faith and hope. She dedicated herself to prayer and penance and entrusted herself completely to the will of God. Because of his faith and perseverance, many of his prayers have been answered and many of his problems have been resolved in unexpected ways.
