O powerful St. Rita,
rightly called Saint of the Impossible,
I come to you with confidence in my great need.
You know well my trials,
for you yourself were many times
burdened in this life.
Come to my help, speak for me,
pray with me, intercede on my 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 mine
and obtain for me the grace I desire,
(Make your request)
You who were so very pleasing to God
on earth and are so much so now in heaven,
I promise to use this favour, when granted,
to better my life, to proclaim God's mercy,
and to make you more widely known and loved.
Amen.
