St. Jude

I had a splendid weekend with my family! We went to my Baba’s house on Saturday and had deep fried turkey (scrumptious!) and had a lot of fun with the whole family. I lost my Baba about 3 months ago and I miss her terribly. She was a wonderful woman who always brought a smile to my face.

The following prayer is on a prayer card of my Baba’s. It is the prayer of St. Jude:

ST JUDE, glorious Apostle, faithful servant and friend of Jesus, the name of the traitor has caused you to be forgotten my many, but the true Church invokes you universally as the Patron of things despaired of; pray for me, who am so miserable; pray for me that finally I may receive the consolations and the succour of Heaven in all my necessities, tribulations and sufferings, and that I may bless God with the Elect throughout Eternity. Amen.
