Place of prayer
Former model opens thrift store – and spiritual refuge

BY LINDA MCINTOSH

OCEANSIDE – To most people passing by the bare display windows, it was just another vacant storefront. But to Rita Sweeting, it was the answer to her prayers.

The former Paris fashion model had a vision for the small shop at 1012 S. Coast Highway in Oceanside.

Her vision is not about high fashion.

The Vista resident is opening a resale store called God's Little Garden, which she hopes will be a spiritual refuge for the community.

From the North County Times March 2007

"Rita Sweeting said she regrets not selling the russet potato she found in the shape of the Virgin Mary before it spoiled. Or at least making a clay mold of it.

"The potato lasted for eight months, and then it decayed," the Vista resident said. "It was my fault that I wouldn't let go of it to sell it for the prayer chapel."

Sweeting told North County Times readers in March of the many sightings she had had of the Virgin Mary, and how she felt called to create a prayer chapel." Read more.

Reviews

Rita Sweeting's new CD, “Something Like Jazz,” is a delight to the ears. Her rich soothing voice is a pleasure to listen to. Rita's style is a mix of jazz with African Scat undertones along with her international flare. Audiences of all preferences of music can enjoy her variance of her different blends and you can relax or feel her rhythms as her voice takes your mind away to that wonderful musical place with Rita. As the owner of the iConnect Café, located at 201 East Broadway in Vista, California , I can tell you that hearing Rita sing live is a special treat that you deserve to hear.
