St. Rita of Cascia
I was a student in the 50's. I had public school catechism and nuns in traditional attire were so special to me. As I searched, I came across St. Rita. Her story Is an inspiration to us married Catholic ladies. This biography helped me get to know her. As a result, I found a 12" statue for my home later on. I love her image, dress, and holding the Crucifix. Try St.Rita if you feel like me.

An Extra Ordinary Person
The story is so unusual. I had not known that St. Rita is considered the Saint of the impossible. Thought that title had belonged to St. Jude.What a team these two make for us who have two very powerful, loving friends. Best Uses: Read at your own pace, Use as daily inspiration; Cons: Original language dated; Pros: A new favorite saint, Inspires me to visit, Most interesting story, Well-written
