Novena to St. Rita
O holy protectress of those who
art in greatest need, thou who
shineth as a star of hope in the
midst of darkness, blessed Saint
Rita, bright mirror of God's
grace, in patience and fortitude
thou art a model of all the states
in life. I unite my will with the
will of God through the merits
of my Savior Jesus Christ, and
in particular through his patient
wearing of the crown of thorns,
which with tender devotion
thou didst daily contemplate.
Through the merits of the holy
Virgin Mary and thine own
graces and virtues, I ask thee to
obtain my earnest petition, provided
it be for the greater glory
of God and my own sanctification.
Guide and purify my intention,
O holy protectress and
advocate, so that I may obtain
the pardon of all my sins and
the grace to persevere daily, as
thou didst in walking with courage,
generosity, and fidelity
down the path of life. (Mention
your request.)
Saint Rita, advocate of the impossible,
pray for us.
Saint Rita, advocate of the helpless,
pray for us.
Recite the Our Father, Hail
Mary, and Glory Be three times
each. K.M. & C.M.
Remember to
Say Your
Novenas!
