Prayer to Saint Jude

Oh, most holy apostle Saint Jude, faithful friend and servant of Jesus, the church honors and invokes thee universally as the patron saint of hopeless cases; of things despaired of. Make use, I implore thee, of that particular privelege granted to you: to bring speedy and visible help where help is most despaired of. Come to my aid in these great needs that I may know the help and consolation of heaven in these and all my necessities, tribulations and sufferings, particularly:

<Here give mention to your intentions.>

And that I might praise God with you and all the elect for all eternity. I promise, oh blessed Saint Jude, to be ever mindful of these great favors, to always honor you as my special and powerful patron, and to do all in my power to promote further devotion to you. Amen. .
