Novena to St. Rita
O holy protectress of those who
art in greatest need, thou who
shineth as a star of hope in the
midst of darkness, blessed Saint
Rita, bright mirror of God's
grace, in patience and fortitude
thou art a model of all the states
in life. I unite my will with the
will of God through the merits
of my Savior Jesus Christ, and
in particular through his patient
wearing of the crown of thorns,
which with tender devotion
thou didst daily contemplate.
Through the merits of the holy
Virgin Mary and thine own
graces and virtues, I ask thee to
obtain my earnest petition, provided
it be for the greater glory
of God and my own sanctification.
Guide and purify my intention,
O holy protectress and
advocate, so that I may obtain
the pardon of all my sins and
the grace to persevere daily, as
thou didst in walking with courage,
generosity, and fidelity
down the path of life. (Mention
your request.)
Saint Rita, advocate of the impossible,
pray for us.
Saint Rita, advocate of the helpless,
pray for us.
Recite the Our Father, Hail
Mary, and Glory Be three times
each. K.M. & C.M.

Pallone Statement on
Passage of the Bipartisan Heroes Act
Press Release 5/15/20
WASHINGTON, DC – Congressman
Frank Pallone, Jr.
(NJ-06) today released the following
statement after House
passage of The Heroes Act:
“The House today passed The
Heroes Act that delivers vital
funding to our state and local
governments, provides another
round of direct stimulus
checks, and ensures that coronavirus
treatment is free for
and how they struggled all odds
to win that game.
In Episode X, they win their
sixth time championship the
struggle of Scottie Pippen and
his back. The end of the Bulls
dynasty and the eventual retirement
of Michael Jordan.
Is this worth watching? Heck,
Yeah! Even if you do not like
sports, but you like documentaries
and you like to learn about
the greatest basketball player
who ever lived, it shows all
all Americans,” Pallone said.
“During a public health crisis,
it is irresponsible to even suggest
that state and local governments
consider bankruptcy as
they continue to provide critical
services and employ essential
workers.
“The Heroes Act that I helped
craft requires the Administration
to develop a comprehensive
testing strategy with
contact tracing that has clear
sides of Jordan. It shows how
kind and generous he was, and
his darker side showing that he
was not perfect. It also shows
how close Jordan was with his
teammates and his dad.
If you missed all this, you
can catch up on demand. 30 for
30 is always worth watching.
Watch this one. There are tons
more that you’ll want to watch
as well. Give it a watch!
benchmarks and timelines. It
also requires that medical supplies,
testing equipment and
drugs and ultimately vaccines
are available to all Americans,”
Pallone concluded. “This bill is
a bold next step that will ensure
we can protect the health of all
Americans as we work to safely
reopen our economy. It’s time
for the Senate to take up this
legislation and get it to the President’s
desk for a signature.”
