Prayerflowers - I always smile when I see your name in "comments."
St. Rita is loved by so many...do you think that's because so many feel they have "lost causes?"
She is there for her friends.

St Rita is beautiful. I am currently praying to her for a hopeless cause in my life, and I have faith. Thank you, St Rita for listening to my petition. She gives me peace. I hope she gives you peace, also.
