Domine non Sum Dignus!

[CFCP-Preserving the Priesthood @canceledpriests]

Today, May 22nd, is the feast of St. Rita!
Saint Rita was born Margherita Lotti in Roccaporena, Italy, in 1381. The day after her baptism, Rita was surrounded by a swarm of white bees, which went in and out of her mouth without hurting her. Rather than being alarmed, her family believed she was marked to be virtuous and devoted to God.
At an early age, she begged her parents to allow her to enter a convent but was instead arranged to be married to a cruel man named Paolo Mancini. Young Rita became a wife and mother at only twelve years of age, and her husband was a man of violent temper. In anger, he often mistreated Rita verbally and physically. He was also known to pursue other women.
Paolo had many enemies in Cascia, but Rita's influence over him eventually made him a better man. He even renounced a family feud between the Mancinis and Chiquis. Unfortunately, the feud between the Mancini and Cascia families grew turbulent, and one of Paolo's allies betrayed and killed him.
Following her husband's death, Rita gave his murderers a public pardon, but Paolo's brother, Bernardo, was still angry and encouraged Rita's two sons, Giovanni Antonio and Paulo Maria, to join the feud. Under their uncle's leadership, each boy became more and more like their father had been before Rita married him, and they wanted to avenge their father's murder. Rita attempted to stop them, but both of her sons were determined to avenge their slain father. Rita prayed to God, asking Him to take her sons before they lost their souls to the mortal sin of murder. One year later, her prayers were answered when both of her sons fell prey to dysentery and died. Following the deaths of her sons, Rita attempted to enter the monastery of Saint Mary Magdalene in Cascia, but she was not allowed to join. Though Rita's character and piety were recognized, her husband's association with the family feud was greatly feared. When Rita persisted, the convent told her she could join if she could find a way to mend the wound between the Chiquis and Mancinis. After asking John the Baptist, Augustine of Hippo, and Nicholas of Tolentino to help her in her task, she attempted to end the feud.
The bubonic plague had been spreading through Italy at that time, and when Bernardo Mancini became infected, he finally abolished the feud with the Chiqui family. Once the conflict was resolved, Rita was allowed to enter the monastery at the age of thirty-six. It is said that she was transported into the monastery of Saint Magdalene through levitation at night by the three patron saints she appealed to.While at the monastery, Rita performed her duties faithfully and received the sacraments frequently. Rita had a great devotion to the Passion of Christ, and one day when she was sixty years old, she asked, "Please let me suffer like you, Divine Saviour."
After her request, a wound appeared on her forehead, as if a thorn from Christ's crown had pierced her. It left a deep wound, which did not heal, and it caused her to suffer until the day she died. It is said that as she neared the end of her life, Rita was bedridden from tuberculosis. It was then that she asked a cousin who had come to visit for a rose from the garden in her old home. As it was January, her cousin did not expect to find any roses, but there was a single rose in bloom, which was brought back to Rita at the convent.
She passed away four months later, on May 22, 1457.
Following her death, she was buried at the basilica of Cascia, and was later discovered to be incorrupt. Her body can be found today in the Saint Rita shrine at Cascia.
St. Rita, pray for us!

O Living One who descended to the dead, and preached good hope to the souls held in Sheol, we implore you: Lord, have mercy on us.

To Christ’s beloved priests in the USA & around the world, rejoice that you are men of Thanksgiving, men of the Eucharist. The heart of your work is to celebrate Holy Mass, to teach His Truth to the flock as it flows from His Eucharistic Face. Be rooted in Jesus & share His Truth

[Bishop J. Strickland @BishStrickland]

The blasphemy is that this holy priest is canceled while an evil president promotes the denial of truth & the murder of the unborn at every turn, Vatican officials promote immorality & denial of the deposit of faith & priests promote gender confusion devastating lives…evil

“Into your hands, Lord, I commend my spirit.”

I cannot do this whole life thing on my own anymore. I’ve tried. I need the help of Almighty God and the help of others.

Please pray for me.
