Saint Jude The Apostle, Patron in Cases of Despair
and or Desperation

How to Ask for Saint Jude's Intercession

First and foremost, have a Mass said in his honor. Even better a three day novena of Masses is that much more efficacious.

Receiving Holy Communion in his honor, with all the humility you can muster, is also a powerful aid. It is known that many who have offered their thanksgiving to him for his assistance have had Masses said or have offered their Communions for that purpose.

The most common method is the nine day novena, which is on the previous page.

Another powerful aid to obtaining his help is to do some charitable work---corporal or spiritual work of mercy---in his name or honor. The merciful are favored by God and His Saints. The practice of charity accompanied by prayer is most powerful with God and with Saint Jude.
