Lovely Rita


The Saint Rita window is done. This one was hard. How do you cut down a woman who did so much in her life to 300 words? On top of that, her life story is inconsistent from biographer to biographer. To even things out I relied on her "official" bio from her canonization, the book St. Rita of Cascia Saint by Sicardo and, the website of Basilica di Santa Rita da Cascia, the home of her remains. So far, I am up to 39 citations for the booklet. The next main window I am going to work on is the Espousal of Mary and Joseph followed by Saint Hyacinth. Cheers.
