About this listen
TW: domestic violence, murder
St. Rita of Cascia is the patron saint of lost causes, wounds, loneliness and widows, mothers, and abuse victims. But why? Travel back to the 13th-14th centuries and join us to hear a tale about family feuds, murder, and a poor notary named Gubbio.
St. Rita, pray for us
