O ever Glorious and Blessed Virgin.

Prayer
in Trials
Most Holy Apostle, St.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 honours and invokes
you universally as the patron of
hopeless cases of things despaired of.
O' St. Jude, 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 consolation and encouragement
of Heaven in all
my necessities, tribulations and sufferings
and that I may thank God along with you
and all the saints forever. I promise you, O
blessed St.Jude to be ever mindful of this great
favour and I will never cease to honour you
as my special and powerful patron & to do
all in my power to encourage devotion
to you.
Amen.
Prayer
in Times of Emergency
O' St.Jude, the friend and relative of Jesus,
Our Lord and Saviour, the trusted patron
of the devotees, the powerful protector
of the suffering, glorious martyr adorned
with rare virtues and miraculous power,
gentle apostle, relying on your extraordinary
power of coming to the help
of the helpless, I turn to you with confidence
( here mention your need ).
I most humbly entreat you to
help me, for I am unable to do anything worth
by myself. I promise that I will honor
you as my special patron
and powerful protector throughout my life and
that I will do everything possible within my
ability to spread your devotion among others.
I sadly realize the fact that because of the
resemblance of your holy name with that of the
traitor, Judas Iscariot, you are not properly
loved and venerated by many. But
still thousands around the world accept you
as their powerful helper in their most desperate
needs and hopeless cases.
O St.Jude,grant me peace and solace; hasten
to help me in my dire needs; and
above all procure for me the grace of
final perseverence with which I
may join you and with multitude
of the elected to sing the praises of God for
all eternity.
Amen.
Prayer
for Impossible things
O' St.Jude, the close relative of the Holy Family,
beloved son of the Holy Trinity,
prompt succour of the devotees, unfailing supporter
of the desperate, I turn to you for help with
confidence. Make haste to help me. Remember,
O powerful Apostle, that God has adorned you
with the rare gift of coming to the help of
the most abandoned and the desperate
cases. Turn your eyes of pity and love
towards me. My life has become a continous 'way
of the cross', and my days have become sorrowful,
my heart has become a deep ocean of tears and
all the paths of life, I see full of thorns.
There is hardly every moment in my life which
does not give me pain and agony. I have reached
the verge of utter despair, my heart
is numb within me. Fear and anxiety have
filled my heart. I now approach you
in deep agony and I will not leave
you until you come downto help me.
O! Powerful Apostle! hasten to come to my aid.
Help me to proclaim your goodness and power
and to sing your praises. I promise that all
the days of my life here on earth, I will
ever sing your wondrous deep until
I join you to sing unceasingly the
infinite mercy of God in Heaven.
Amen.
