Novena to Saint Rita of Cascia – Catholic Novena Prayer Book

Some prayers begin where easy answers end. The Novena to Saint Rita of Cascia is a traditional Catholic prayer booklet devoted to one of the Church’s most beloved intercessors in times of hardship and seemingly impossible circumstances. Through multiple pages of prayers and devotions to St. Rita, this compact novena book offers the faithful a simple way to bring their intentions before God while seeking the intercession of the saint generations of Catholics have turned to when hope seems far away.

Saint Rita knew suffering intimately. As a wife, mother, widow, and eventually an Augustinian religious sister, she experienced grief, family conflict, loss, and years of patient prayer. Rather than allowing hardship to harden her heart, she entrusted what she could not change to God. Her life became a witness to perseverance, forgiveness, reconciliation, and confidence in divine providence.

For this reason, St. Rita of Cascia is widely invoked as a patron saint of impossible and difficult causes. Catholics seek her prayers during troubled marriages, family difficulties, illness, grief, strained relationships, and circumstances in which a path forward is difficult to see.

This Saint Rita novena book provides prayers and devotions for those wishing to seek her intercession with greater intention. Its compact 5.25″ × 4″ format is comfortable to hold during prayer and small enough to keep near a home altar, bedside, Bible, or favorite devotional space.

Throughout the booklet, traditional Cromo NB artwork accompanies the prayers, continuing the richly illustrated tradition associated with Italian Catholic devotional printing. Printed in Italy, the booklet brings together sacred imagery and traditional prayer in a format equally suited to personal devotion or giving as a thoughtful Catholic gift.

It is especially appropriate for a nine-day Novena to Saint Rita, in preparation for her feast day on May 22, or whenever a difficult intention needs to be entrusted to prayer.

Saint Rita’s life does not promise that every hardship will disappear.

It offers something more enduring—the example of a woman who continued to pray when circumstances gave her every reason to stop.

And for the person carrying an intention that seems impossible, sometimes that is precisely where prayer begins.
