Saint Rita of Cascia endured great suffering throughout her life but remained steadfast in faith and trust in God. After a difficult marriage and personal tragedy, she entered an Augustinian convent, where she devoted herself to prayer, caring for the sick, and counseling those who sought her wisdom.
She is especially remembered for receiving a miraculous wound from a thorn of Christ’s crown upon her forehead, a sign of her deep union with His suffering. Today, Saint Rita is honored as a powerful intercessor in difficult and impossible situations.
