St. Rita, you know the troubles of a difficult marriage: for years you suffered from the violent outbursts of your husband, and yet you remained faithful, patient, and kind.

O St. Rita, you prayed for your husband, and he repented, he returned to the path of righteousness, and he committed to his role as a good spouse and good father.

St. Rita, watch over the couples who are facing hardships. Obtain for them the strength and courage to live together in peace, love and fidelity.

St. Rita, patroness of desperate cases, of impossible causes, I trust in your powerful intercession to the Lord.

Obtain for me to trust and to hope in the Kingdom of God, and the grace of reconciliation for my couple in difficulty.

St. Rita, pray for us.

Amen.”
