NOVENA TO ST. JUDE

O most holy apostle, St. Jude, faithful servant and friend of Jesus, people honor and invoke you universally, as the patron of hopeless cases, of things almost despaired of. Pray for me, for I am so helpless and alone. Please help to bring me visible and speedy assistance. Come to my assistance in this great need that I may receive the consolation and help of heaven in all my necessities, tribulations, and sufferings, particularly (state your request) and that I may praise God with you always."

"I promise, O blessed St. Jude, to be ever mindful of this great favor, to always honor you as my special and powerful patron, and to gratefully encourage devotion to you by publishing this request. Amen."-J.H



"Holy Saint Jude, Apostle and Martyr, Great in virtue and rich in miracles, Near kinsman of Jesus Christ, Faithful intercessor of all Who invoke your special patronage in time of need. To you I have recourse from the depths of my heart And humbly beg to whom God has given such great power To come to my assistance. Help me in my present and urgent petition, In return I promise to make your name known And cause you to be invoked. Saint Jude pray for me and all those who invoke your aid. Amen."-J.H

St. Jude,

I don't believe I ever properly thanked you for answering my prayers in the past. Now, I come to you again in total desperation. Please hear my prayer and answer it. This is the hardest, scariest thing I have ever faced. You know what is in my heart. I may not be the best person, and, I may not deserve all my prayers to be answered. This time it isn't just about me, it involves so many people. Please answer my prayer so that we can all get on with our lives and work toward being better people. I promise to thank you properly this time.

Thank you, St. Jude.
