Most holy Apostle St. Jude, 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, of things despaired of. Pray for me who am so miserable; make use, I implore you, of this 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 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 forever.
I promise you, O blessed St. 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.
