I have my question regarding the Saint Zita. I really want to read about the great saint bit I am so busy from the last few days that I do not really get enough time. For this reason I would appreciate if I could get the summary of the information available about Saint Zita.

Saint Zita is the patron saint of maids and domestic servants was born in Tuscany, Italy, in the village of Monsagrati. At the age of 12, she became a servant in the Fatinelli household and for a long time, she was unjustly despised, overburdened, reviled, and often beaten by her employers and fellow servants for her hard work and obvious goodness. Such atrocious attitude, however, could not deprive her of her inward peace, and at last succeeded in overcoming the hatred of her fellow-servants and her employers, so much so that she was placed in charge of all the affairs of the house. On one morning, Zita left her chore of baking bread to tend to someone in need. Some of the other servants ensured the Fatinelli family was aware of what happened; when they went to investigate, they claimed to have found angels in the Fatinelli kitchen, baking the bread for her. St. Zita died peacefully in the Fatinelli house on April 27, 1272. It is said that a star appeared above the attic where she slept at the moment of her death. Her feast day in the Roman Catholic Church is April 27 and families bake a loaf a bread in celebration of St. Zita's feast day.
