(For Children 7 and Under)
Once upon a time, in a small town in Italy, there lived a little girl named Rita.
Rita loved Jesus very much.
When other children were playing loudly, Rita would sometimes sit quietly and talk to God. She told Him about her day. She told Him when she felt happy. She told Him when she felt sad.
Rita wanted her heart to be gentle.
As she grew up, life was not always easy. Some people around her were angry and did not know how to be kind. But Rita chose something very brave.
She chose forgiveness.
Instead of shouting, she prayed.
Instead of holding anger, she asked God to help her love.
And God listened.
Rita became known as a woman who prayed for things that seemed impossible — and somehow, with God, they became possible.
That is why many people call her:
The Saint of Impossible Things.
But do you know what made her special?
It was not miracles.
It was her soft heart.
Tonight, if something feels hard…
If someone hurt your feelings…
If something seems impossible…
You can whisper:
“Saint Rita, help me trust God.”
And remember —
God always sees a kind heart.
Goodnight.
