Can I Pray With You? Introduction

O, powerful St. Rita, rightly called Saint of the impossible, [we] come to you with confidence in [our] great need. You know well [our] trials, for you yourself were many times burdened in this life. Come to [our] help, speak for [us], pray with [us], intercede on [our] behalf before the Father. I know that God has a most generous heart and that He is a most loving Father. Join your prayers to [ours] and obtain for [us] the grace [we] desire [strength and whit for parents supporting children learning from home, support for those children learning from home, comfort for the lonely, rest for the tired, and peace for those who are stressed with financial instability]. You who were so very pleasing to God on earth and are so much so now I heaven, I promise to use these favors when granted, to better our lives, to proclaim God's mercy, and to make you more widely known. Amen.
