After completing 9 days novena to St Jude, God has answered our prayers God has given my daughter her lost job & lost visa status.Thank you, Lord, Thank you St. Jude for hearing our request & interceding for us, at a time when we thought it was hopeless.
from A.T.
Good day, All Praise and glory to our Lord Jesus through the novena of Saint Jude my prayers have been answered financially. I was so worried about how I was to pay all my bills and debts. After the 9 days of novena yesterday, I received financial blessings. Thank you Saint Jude Praise God Alleluia
from E.M.
I wanted to share my success story with this novena. My mom had been diagnosed with a form of lymphoma called mantle cell. I prayed the novena for her healing. She just received a scan that she is free of any cancer.
I previously prayed this novena when almost all of my belongings had been stolen by a landlord. Months went by and out of blue I saw a truck outside the landlord’s house. Almost all of my things were on the truck and I was able to recover them.
Thank you so much for sharing these novenas!
from E.S.
I am immensely grateful to Saint Jude and Saint Anthony for the answered prayers.
My prayer was answered on the eight day when I saw several missed calls from my boss that the sim I have been looking for have been found, securely stapled in an envelope, after 5 months of search.
These sim could cause demotion, job loss, embarrassment and queries from the Chief Executive.
Thank you Saint Jude and Saint Anthony.
from P.N.
I had several medical conditions and had issues financially, emotionally and physical. St Jude answered my prayers and i am now recovering from ny physical pain.
from M.G.
Thank you St. Jude, for this great deliverance granted to my son and my family. My son was afflicted with some kind of resistant derangement defying all remedies. But through the intervention of the venerable Saint, we have seen a great miracle.
Please keep on interceding for me and my family, AMEN
from B.H.
In April, I had an accident and went into the hospital. I was there for a week. I have health insurance, but for some reason, the hospital continually kept messing up on the billing and entering codes incorrectly. They repeatedly kept sending me a bill for $70,000 as they said the insurance covered nothing.
No matter how hard I tried to communicate with them and explain things to them, they ignored me. My insurance company also tried to help, but they ignored them as well. I prayed to St. Jude for a solution. I found a woman who acts as a patient advocate. She made calls on an almost daily basis and kept demanding to be taken up to the next higher level of authority until she reached someone who would listen to her.
The man agreed that my insurance covered my stay and I should not be receiving any bills. He insisted those working in the billing department make the change. Thank you to St. Jude.
from M.E.R.
Thank you St. Jude for answering my prayers. My brother is on the road to recovery from his cancer surgery.
from D.E.
Hello. I prayed the 9 days novena over and over for 12 years and my prayers were finally answered.
The prayer was that my son, my only child, would be returned to me. He was taken unjustly by someone who simply had more money, and I lost contact with my son when he was 10 years old. He was, literally, ripped from my arms. I had raised him alone until then. I had no contact and no news for 12 years. I prayed and prayed, on my knees.
I can’t count the number of novena I said. Everyone told me it was hopeless and to just try to move on with my life. My son showed up on my doorstep, looking for me, when he was 22 years old. He had gone through horrible situations during those years. But the reunion was truly blessed. Now, it’s several years later and all the pain is in the past.
We are very close now and have been able to heal a lot. My son is very devout and we go to Mass all the time together. He is truly a consolation to me.
Thank you, St Jude.
from B.K.
This novena absolutely works! Thank you St. Jude for coming through and helping my daughter and her ex reopen the lines of communication.
It’s been a tough couple of months since the two broke up, as both were being incredibly stubborn about talking to the other. I decided to ask St. Jude for his help to reopen the lines of communication between the two. On day 7 of the Novena out of the blue my daughter sent me a screenshot of a text message that she planned to send her ex….basically signaling the white flag.
She told me that she had been thinking of reaching out to him because she finally wanted to clear the air and move on. Less than an hour after sending that text,the two were in contact again and arranged for a coffee meetup to clear the air.
Two days later they met up and while they are not back together as a couple, they are back to talking again and who knows where this will lead to. I did tell my daughter that I was praying for them both and that the prayer for them to at least begin talking again had worked.
As always, Thank-you St. Jude!!!
from S.M.
Thank you St Jude for praying for my brother-in-law’s peaceful death at home with hospice. Thank you for a negative biopsy for myself.

St. Jude, you have always pulled through for me when I’m in my most urgent needs.

I continue to pray to him everyday and I have faith that he will help me with my career situation.

I prayed for my financial situation with my current employer to be resolved. Where the company filed for insolvency and I needed to be payed for all my 17 years of working with them.

Today, when I was told that all my dues will be cleared, I felt such a huge burden of uncertainity lift of my shoulder and after a long time slept peacefully.

Thank St. Jude for answered prayers. You have always been the Saint I rely on in whenever something really hard happens.
You were loved my by husband and were his favorite! So if I or anyone in my family is in real trouble you’re the one I go to.
My granddaughter is pregnant with her fourth baby. When they went to have the sonogram to find out if it was a boy or girl, they also found out the baby might be in trouble. The Specialist they send them to confirmed this saying he didn’t think the baby would survive.
He had fluid in his stomach and some in heart and brain. Of course we were all devastated. They would be keeping an eye on them twice weekly.
One of the many novenas I prayed was to St. Jude.
I read that on the 8 day of the novena I would get an answer. On the 8th I found out that the fluid in his heart and brain had gone. His fluid in his tummy was still there and also the inflammation in his colon, but it was a ray of Hope!
Now, after the second novena to St . Jude, they don’t have to go back until later this month to see the Specialist. Got the news on the 8th day again!
Thank you, St Jude! Keep looking after my granddaughter and her precious baby!

I prayed to St Jude Thaddeus a Novena for 7 days. The request wasn’t granted.
Disappointed, I started a 2nd Novena. On day two of the 2nd Novena the request was granted!
So I decided to continue the Novena to complete (what I thought was) the 7 day Novena.
Today is day 6 when it hit me! The Novena is supposed to be a 9 day Novena- NOT 7 days!
So I was discouraged that my request was not granted on day 7 yet it was granted two days later!

Thanksgiving to St Jude - Patron of Hopeless cases.
My friend and I were in distress so many months over someone who was blackmailing and extorting money from us to spoil our reputation and make us lose our jobs.
The work given to him wasn’t done correctly by him the first time although he was paid as he did it intentionally so that he could blackmail us!
We didn’t know what to do and who to turn too. All our openings were blocked at every angle.
Soon I came across the prayer to St Jude one day on my Internet feed and made the 9 day Novena to St Jude and then days later the same enemies turned for the better and became a good person and helped us to get out of this mess permanently!!
I can’t Thank St Jude enough for helping us through such a hopeless case that would have ruined our jobs, our homes and everything!
Thank you so so.much St Jude for all favours received and You will be my strength and hope always.

St Jude is my patron of saint. He never failed me, first my dad’s and my US visas, second our house and the most miraculous one is the result of my breast ultrasound is BENIGN.
Some hospitals wanted me to do biopsy to check the cyst they found on my left breast so i prayed the novena for a month and this 9 days novena.
Today is the 9th day and I got the result. Thank you St Jude!

I want to write this expressing my gratitude, to thank St Jude for his intercession.
I have been praying for my son to get a placement as part of his degree course; he went for an interview some months ago and was not offered a position; however, they said he was on the waiting list, so has been waiting for months and today on my 5th day of the Novena, he got the news he has been offered a placement!
I thank God and the powerful intercession of St Jude. I am still waiting for my other intentions that I offered to St Jude and believe he will continue to intercede.
Thank you St Jude and all praise to you for the answered prayer.

Sometime ago, I prayed this novena to St. Jude, and within the 9 days my prayers were answered. It was truly a miracle from God!
Today, I find myself in a serious situation and am praying again to St. Jude to intercede for me. I pray to God that I will receive the answer i seek.

I finished the St. Jude novena yesterday. I had left the Catholic faith years ago, almost 20 years or so.
I had since joined pentecostal Protestantism. What brought me to your novena webpage two weeks ago was a feeling of loss in my country Uganda.
Jobs are so scarce to the point that most people above just eventually don’t bother looking.
I prayed for gainful employment, and I didn’t get it but during praying this novena, on the eighth day, I got a response from a consultancy that I had since given up on.
They aren’t offering me a job yet per se, but an opportunity to be a part of a meaningful group through which I see could get contractual work if any comes up.
Also, my mother with breast cancer finally saw significant improvement in her health, which she hadn’t seen previously even though she was on therapy.
This is the best news I have got in a long time, all through St Jude’s prayers.
I thank God through the intercession of St Jude for healing me.
I got in an accident, succumbed to an infection, visited several hospials but never got healed.
So I requested St Jude to intercede for me and was finally healed of the infection.
I was in a very low place with my mental health and despaired. I prayed the novena to St Jude 10 years ago regarding my marriage and my prayer was answered so I prayed the novena to St Jude again for help with my mental health.
I have finished the novena today and I’m in a much better place mentally. Thank you St Jude.
Saint Jude has answered countless prayers for me and my husband and family over the years including health and job issues.
We are grateful for his intercession everyday!
We became debt free thanks to St Jude’s intercession.
Hello! Thank you for sharing your prayer to St. Jude.

My son was in process of adopting a beautiful baby boy.
It was an extremely difficult situation, so I prayed to St. Jude for months and today we were notified that the adoption is set to move forward!
Thank you St. Jude, you’re truly my patron saint.

I prayed to St Jude for a job after looking for one for more than 3 months. I got a job in a good company!
Thank you so much St Jude.
Thank you St. Jude for interceding and our getting the street lights, so that now we may walk safely in the evenings.

Pray for us St. Jude.
Hi, want to share that I recieved good news in a difficult court case.
There was injustice for a long time but through St Jude’s intercession, we received a reprieve for my mother.
I am a believer.
Thank you St.Jude!
St. Jude has been a staple in my life, faith, and devotion for years.
It began with an urgent financial request and continues as recently in helping me find quick employment and housing when relocating out of state.
Thank you St. Jude for your powerful intercession, and thank God for the blessings and graces you have bestowed upon St. Jude.
I am eternally grateful.
My daughter was scheduled for surgery and we prayed this novena to St Jude.
By God’s grace, I was strong during the whole process and the surgery went well!
Thank you St. Jude for the answered prayers.
For bringing kind people to my help my brother’s finances while he is still recuperating with his illness.
And for providing his family a brand new car without a single centavo spent!
Thank you very much St. Jude for your powerful intercession. Thank you God the Father. Thank you Jesus.
Recently, I lost a significant amount of money and couldn’t find it. I was like the woman who lost a coin, anxious and overwhelmed and constantly searching until she found it, rejoicing with friends and family its recovery.
That’s what I wanted: The loss of a bank envelope filed with the money that would get us through the next five months.
I was seriously stressed.
So, after receiving an email from you, I decided to say the St. Jude Thaddeus 9 day novena. Truthfully, I wavered between doubt and faith- doubt that it would work, faith that it would.
I never did recover that money. But after a few days, I began feeling not so bad anymore, the daily reading supporting me in regards to what’s important. Each day I felt less and less worried, less and less concerned.
I began to realize what was happening, My prayer was being answered. I had given all up to God and His will. He took away my anxiousness and filled me with acceptance. I was no longer frantic.
I faithfully completed the novena and today was my last day. I am grateful to St. Jude for this novena. It taught me to listen to God and accept what He says.
The reading for today coincides with my novena request. Who will I choose: God or Mammon?
St Jude has been my go to Saint since the age of 17. He first helped me with a heart break and ever since I run to him for everything, because he pleads for me to our Lord. He is now the patron Saint of my little family.
I am grateful to him for all the prayers answered, from my husbands job to healing my Dad’s fracture, my son’s health, my sister’s visa.
My life is a testimony to the work of St Jude! Thank you St Jude for always praying for me.
I have been receiving mammograms for many years. This year, I was recommended to have a breast MRI for a suspicious finding.
My mother had breast cancer (thank the Good Lord she is alive and well to this day), but I am considered at elevated risk because of that family history.
My breast MRI was completed on October 10, 2022. Again, findings suspicious and also different than how the mammograms looked.
So I was recommended to have an MRI guided breast biopsy.
In the meantime I prayed this Novena to St Jude.
I had my breast biopsy yesterday, the final day of the novena and received the results today: BENIGN!
St. Jude has helped me before in my life, and until now I never found a platform in which to publicly thank him and recognize him. Thank you, St. Jude, for prayers answered.
I have been praying this novena and asked St. Jude for a job and a place to stay.
And I have been amazed that all my prayers, have been answered.
So I keep on praying this novena to St. Jude for everything now. And I have even asked for a little statue of him. And when I went to the gift shop after church, I got one for free.
Every thing good keeps on happening to me because of St. Jude, I don’t know how to properly thank him. The lady at the gift shop told me that I have to do it publicly.
So I hope this will be posted on your novena webpage for St Jude, and hopefully I can get a sticker for the car, so everyone can see it every day.
Thank you St. Jude Thaddeus for answering all my prayers every time and still to this day and ongoing.
I prayed this novena nine days prior for may daughter’s board examination of pharmacy licensure, and my prayers were answered!
My son has found a job and is working again and supporting his family.
Please St Jude keep his mind and body healthy so he can continue to function as a parent, husband and valued employee.
Since praying St Jude Novena, my autistic daughter has shown great improvement.
And my son’s emotional health following a viral infection is much improved.
Our son has complicated disease.
But since praying the St. Jude Novena (brought to me by Mary Undoer of Knots) our son’s health has improved notably almost daily during the 9 days!
So grateful.
After praying the St Jude Novena, my niece left my mother’s home quietly and quickly.
My niece had been a terrible disturbance to my mother and our family.
She wouldn’t let me visit my mother and was extremely nasty to me and very manipulative to my mother.
Thank you so much… I love St Jude!! God bless you for all you do.
I prayed this novena 9 days prior to my mammogram which they were following an possibly irregularity; my results came back benign!
Thank you St Jude, forever grateful.

More About St. Jude
St. Jude Thaddeus was one of the 12 Apostles of Christ. (Note that he should not be confused with the traitor Judas Iscariot.)
St. Jude is called the “brother of Jesus” in Matthew 13:55 and Mark 6:3, but we know from Catholic Tradition that this usage means a relative of Jesus, potentially a cousin, as his mother was Clopas, the Virgin Mary’s cousin.
St. Jude is also called “the brother of James,” indicating St. James the Less, and Tradition indicates St. Jude was the author of the Epistle of Jude in the New Testament.
Symbols of St. Jude
St. Jude is often depicted with a club, since some sources say he was martyred by being beaten to death with a club.
He is also often shown with a flame over his head, a reference to his presence in the Upper Room at Pentecost, with the Virgin Mary and the other Apostles, where they received the Holy Spirit.
In paintings, St. Jude is shown holding an image of Christ, called the Image of Edessa.
The legend goes that King Abgar of Edessa asked Jesus to cure him of an illness. Jesus responded by making an impression of his face onto a cloth and sent it back to Abgar through his envoy. After Christ’s crucifixion, St. Jude sent another disciple to King Abgar and immediately Abgar was healed. The king and his kingdom converted to Christianity.
The Martyrdom of St. Jude
After his death, St. Jude’s body was placed in a crypt in St. Peter’s Basilica in Rome.
Over the centuries, many people have prayed for his intercession and received help, leading to his designation as the patron saint for hopeless causes. Both St. Bridget of Sweden and St. Bernard were given private revelation that St. Jude was the patron saint of the impossible.
According to one tradition, Saint Jude was martyred in 65 AD in Beirut along with the Simon the Zealot (also an Apostle), executed either by an axe or club.
More Resources on St. Jude
When you do not know which saint you should turn to for your needs, St. Jude is a great one to pray a novena to. Along with St. Jude, the novena to St. Joseph has been prayed by countless souls for all their needs. These two great saints can be your go-to standbys for any intention.
Do We Need St. Jude’s Prayers?
When I first became Catholic, I was skeptical of asking saints to pray for me, a hold over from the biases of my Protestant days.
But as I grew in my faith, I realized that not only can we ask the saints, like St. Jude, to pray for us, but that it is the best thing that we can do!
Why?
First, because the saints’ holiness exceeds our own. They obeyed our Lord, did His will, and dedicated themselves to Him. But that’s just the tip of the iceberg for why we should ask them to pray for us. It took up too much room to put here, so I wrote an article on why you need to invoke the saints in prayer, and the benefits you will get from it.
