Our Parish hosts an annual Novena to St. Jude, which is wrapping up tomorrow. (The Feast of St Jude is on October 28th.) It’s been a wonderful prayer experience.
Here’s a beautiful prayer to St. Jude, who is a great intercessor.
Most holy Apostle, St. Jude, faithful servant and friend of Jesus, the Church honors and invokes you universally, as the patron of difficult cases, of things almost despaired of, Pray for me, I am so helpless and alone.
Intercede with God for me that He bring visible and speedy help where help is almost despaired of. 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 –
(make your request here) – and that I may praise God with you and all the saints forever. I promise, O Blessed St. Jude, to be ever mindful of this great favor granted me by God and to always honor you as my special and powerful patron, and to gratefully encourage devotion to you.
Amen
St. Jude, please pray for the souls of my falmiy, may they convert to the catholic church and one day that we say the holy rosary together as a falmiy. Pray for Laurie, let her be healed from the cancer. Pray for my brother Norman, my mom and dad, may their souls rest in peace and be saved. Pray for Mike, Jody, Joe and Sam rest in peace and their souls be saved. Pray for Jess, that her eyes are opened and the unclean spirits leave her. Pray for Mom and Pop that they are healthy and that they find Jesus and their souls also be saved. Pray that Noah’s eyes heal and that he can get off all medications. Pray for Jenny, that her surgery is successful. Pray for Luke, that he finds his way back to the church. Pray for Kelly and her falmiy, that their faith is renewed. Pray that Ray is safe when he drives and that Mariah is safe during this storm. Pray that my house gets through this storm untouched and that power stays on. Pray for the men and women that are running for this election, may the ones that will do God’s will be elected. And may all the amendments and laws that are chosen do God’s will. Pray that I make the right decisions when I vote. Pray for Larry and his falmiy. Pray for Rosanne and her falmiy. Pray for Margaret, Mike, Charles and their families. Pray for the Pope, all priests, and women that have given their lives to Jesus. Pray that everyone prays and that evil is destroyed. Pray that I may be an instrument of God. Amen
