I know that the Novena to Saint Rita of Cascia is prayed every day for nine days, but I just learned that we can also do it every hour for nine hours. Perhaps this can be done by devotees with intentions or requests needing immediate answers or responses from the Lord. I myself have a few important requests that I am desperate to be immediately heard and granted. Below is the Novena to St Rita of Cascia.
Oh Blessed Patroness of people in great need, St Rita, whose pleads before the Divine Lord God are irresistible and heard, who because of her lavishness in granting requests and favors is known as Help of the Hopeless and likewise the Impossible.
St. Rita, you are so humble, so mortified and pure, so patient and of great compassionate love for Jesus Christ that you can obtain from Him whatsoever you may ask, showing your power with the Lord God on behalf of your suppliant; I pray that you be lavish to me, as you have been in many case, for the glory of the Lord, for the cultivation and spread to your devotion, and consolation to devotees trusting thee.
I promise to you, that if my petitions are granted, to glorify you by making known your favor, and to bless and sing praises to you forever. Relying on your power and merits before Sacred Heart of Jesus Our Lord, I pray that you grant my request (state your intention here)

Thank-you St Rita for prayers answered. Will continue to pray and always continue to sing your praises
Thank you so much, dear Saint Rita, for your aid in the healing of my toe skin's condition. The black spot in the skin has finally gone and the affected skin is fully healthy again. Thank you so much for your intercessions. :D
Thank You Lord God and Lord Jesus Christ for hearing and answering my prayers through the intercessions of Saint Rita
O Holy Patroness of those in need, St. Rita, whose pleadings before thy Divine Lord are almost irresistible, who for thy lavishness in granting favors hast been called the Advocate of the Hopeless and even of the Impossible; St. Rita, so humble, so pure, so mortified, so patient and of such compassionate love for thy Crucified Jesus that thou couldst obtain from Him whatsoever thou askest, on account of which all confidently have recourse to thee, expecting, if not alwavs relief, at least comfort; be propitious to our petition, showing thy power with God on behalf of thy suppliant; be lavish to us, as thou hast been in so many wonderful cases, for the greater glory of God, for the spreading of thine own devotion, and for the consolation of those who trust in thee. We promise, if our petition is granted, to glorify, thee by making known thy favor, to bless and sing thy praises forever. Relying then upon thy merits and power before the Sacred Heart of Jesus, we pray: (here mention your request).
Obtain for us our request
By the singular merits of thy childhood,
By thy perfect union with the Divine Will,
By thy heroic sufferings during thy married life,
By the consolation thou didst experience at the conversion of thy husband,
By the sacrifice of thy children rather than see them grievously offend God,
By thy miraculous entrance into the convent,
By thy severe penances and thrice daily bloody scourgings,
By the suffering caused by the wound thou didst receive from the thorn of thy Crucified Savior,
By the divine love which consumed thy heart,
By that remarkable devotion to the Blessed Sacrament, on which alone thou didst exist for 4 years,
By the happiness with which thou didst part from thy trials to join thy Divine Spouse,
By the perfect example thou gavest to people of every state of life.
Pray for us, 0 holy St. Rita,
that we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ.
Let us pray: O God, Who in Thine infinite tenderness hast vouchsafed to regard the prayer of Thy servant, Blessed Rita, and dost grant to her supplication that which is impossible to human foresight, skill and efforts, in reward of her compassionate love and firm reliance on Thy promise, have pity on our adversity and succor us in our calamities, that the unbeliever may know Thou art the recompense of the humble, the defense of the helpless, and the strength of those who trust in Thee, through Jesus Christ, Our Lord. Amen.
