O powerful St. Rita, you are called the Saint of the Impossible, and I come to you in this need. You were a wife, a mother, a widow, and an Augustinian, and you knew what it is for a life to look closed. Obtain for me the grace I ask, if it be for the good of my soul. Teach me to forgive as you forgave, and to carry the thorn without advertising it. Amen.
Prayer to St. Rita of Cascia
Impossible marriages, impossible reconciliations, wounds that will not close.
Where it comes from
Cascia. The thorn in her forehead is the sign she asked to share Christ’s.
