Novena to St. Jude

Most holy apostle, St. Jude,
faithful servant and friend of Jesus
the Church honors and invokies you universally
as the patron of hopeless cases,
of things almost despaired of.

Pray for me.

I am so helpless and alone.

Make use, I implore you,
of that particular privilege given to you
to bring visible and speedy help
where help is almost despaired of.

Come to my assistance in this great need
