I received a message from a dear friend that he was visiting the Shrine of St Rita in Philadelphia today. He would be praying for sister.
He did not know that… she was as devoted to St. Rita as I am, nor that she was buried with beads from Cascia and a holy card of the saint in her hands. Also, I had just come from a Mass in the parish that I had requested weeks earlier in honor of St. Rita.
What a beautiful way to start the day!
