Petitioning Saint Jude for Hope, Healing, and Health
Discover how Saint Jude, the patron saint of lost causes, can help with hopeless situations. From healing to love and finances, his aid is powerful.
Saint Jude has become associated with being the patron saint of desperate and difficult situations. Many people turn to him in prayer, seeking his intercession in times of great need, challenges, or seemingly hopeless circumstances.
Use our white 7 Day Saint Jude devotional candle (vela de San Judas) to ask for help with your most urgent of problems, for healing, and to find wisdom. For extra strength place a few drops of our Saint Jude Oil on top of the candle while it burns.
O glorious Apostle, Saint Jude, faithful servant and friend of Jesus, the name of the traitor who delivered your beloved Master into the hands of His enemies has caused you to be forgotten by many. But the Church honors and invokes you universally as the patron of difficult and desperate cases.
Pray for me who am so miserable. Make use, I implore you, of that particular privilege accorded to you to 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 (mention your specific intention here), and that I may praise God with you always. I promise, blessed Saint Jude, to be ever mindful of this great favor and to always honor you as my special and powerful patron, and to gratefully encourage devotion to you.
Amen.
