Saint Rita of Cascia’s winding path moves from a violent marriage and family feuds to quiet holiness, peacemaking, and steady fidelity that outlasts grief. We wrestle with God’s will, cultural narcissism, and how endurance can be wiser than escape.

• early life, legends, and a thwarted desire for religious life
• marriage, conversion, and the cost of peacemaking
• betrayal, loss, and a mother’s hard prayer for her sons
• ending a feud to enter the convent
• hidden holiness, stigmata, and incorruption
• fidelity in a culture that prizes escape
• prayer and perseverance
• reflection prompts for peace, forgiveness, and hope
