Invoke the powerful intercession of Saint Rita to resolve an impossible cause

MOTHER'S PRAYER

O Immaculate Virgin, mother of Jesus and my mother, through the intercession of Saint Rita, help me in the sweet and serious responsibility of being a mother. To you I entrust, O Mother, the children whom I love so much and for whom I am anxious, I hope and rejoice. Teach me to guide them like Saint Rita, with a sure hand in the way of God. Make me tender without weakness and strong without hardness. Get me that loving patience that never tires and offers and endures for the eternal salvation of its creatures. Help me, Mother. Form my heart in the image of yours and make my children see in me a reflection of your virtues, so that, after learning from me to love and follow you in this life, they come one day to praise you and bless you in heaven. Mary, Queen of Saints, you also have the protection of Saint Rita for my children.

PRAYER TO S. RITA, MODEL OF LIFE

Saint Rita of Cascia, model of brides, mothers of families and religious, I resort to your intercession in the most difficult moments of my life. You know that sadness often oppresses me, because I cannot find the way out in so many painful situations, both material and spiritual. Obtain for me from the Lord the graces I need, especially the serene trust in God and inner calm. Arrange for me to imitate your sweet gentleness, your strength in trials and your heroic charity and ask the Lord that my sufferings can benefit all my loved ones and that everyone can be saved for eternity.
