Novena to Saint Rita

(May 13 to 21)

O glorious St. Rita, your pleadings before the divine crucifix have been known to grant favors that many would call the impossible.

Lovely St. Rita, so humble, so pure, so devoted in your love for thy crucified Jesus, speak on my behalf for my petition which seems so impossible from my humbled position.

(mention your intention here)

Be propitious, O glorious St. Rita, to my petition, showing thy power with God on behalf of thy supplicant.

Be lavish to me, as thou has been in so many wonderful cases for the greater glory of God.

I promise, dear St. Rita, if my petition is granted, to glorify thee, by making known they favor, to bless and sing thy praises forever.

Relying then upon thy merits and power before the Sacred Heart of Jesus I pray.

Amen.
