Saint Rita, you suffered greatly from your husband's violent, brutal character, but you remained faithful to him, attentive, gentle, patient and kind. You prayed for him so much that he repented, corrected himself and became a good husband and father. Saint Rita, I entrust to you my marriage and my husband who is in an extramarital relationship.

Obtain for us the strength and courage to restore our relationship and find peace, love and fidelity in our marriage.

Saint Rita, saint of desperate and impossible causes, I trust in your powerful intercession with the Lord. Obtain for me from God that "confident hope" which does not deceive, and the ardent desire for immortal goods, and I beg you also to obtain for me the grace to reconcile my marraige in difficulty.

Saint Rita, pray for us. Amen."
