Most holy
apostle, saint Jude Thaddeus, faithful servant and friend of Jesus, the name of
the traitor who delivered the 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 hopeless cases and of things most difficult. Pray for me; make use, implore you of the
particular privilege accorded to you to bring visible and speedy help where help
is not found.
Come to my assistance in this great need that I may receive
the consolations and succor of heaven in all my necessities, tribulations and
sufferings, particularly, (here make your request) and that I may bless
God with you and all the elect throughout eternity.
I promise you, O blessed Jude, to be ever mindful of this
great favor, and I will never cease to honor you as my special and powerful
patron and to do all in my power to encourage devotion to you, Amen.
