Previously I was not aware of much about St. Rita and certainly did not know about her association with the rose. On this day in Rome, we saw throngs of people carrying roses. When we inquired, we were told it was St. Rita's feast day, then at dusk we happened on this procession in her honor.
haha reminds me of how I got mobbed by rose sellers on my first trip to Rome, terrible! St. Rita pray for us!
