In the Name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, Amen.
O my God, I believe that You are my Father, / that You created me and love me with a divine love, / and that when I pray, You hear my prayer. / Therefore, my Father, I hope in You, because You are Almighty, and can do all things / I look to you for all my needs / and because of this deep hope I love You with every beat of my heart, / and I am sorry that I ever sinned against You, / and I want to love my brother as I love myself.
Therefore, / with unbounded faith in the Power and in the Mighty Intercession of Your servant St. Jude, / I do make this solemn novena.
Glorious Apostle, and Martyr, St. Jude, / I begin this day of prayer to beg your help / and ask your intercession so that Almighty God, because of you, / will grant me my present need.
(PAUSE here to make known your intention)
Help all of us, Oh Dear St. Jude, in our needs / and inspire us to believe / that there is nothing, / that will be for my good / but that God, through you, will grant me / for Jesus, my Saviour, has said / “if you ask the Father anything in My name, He will give it to you.” / Therefore, in the Name of Jesus and in the name of St. Jude, / I ask Almighty God to grant me my petition, Amen.
The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want. / In green pastures He makes me lie down. / He leads me to waters where I may rest; / He gives refreshment to my soul. / He takes me along paths that are straight for His name sake / Though I should walk in a dark valley, / I will fear no evil, because You are with me. / Your rod and your staff, / these comfort me.
You did prepare for me a table in the sight of my adversaries; / You did anoint my head with oil; / my cup overflows. / Kindness and grace shall follow me and the days of my life / and I shall dwell in the House of the Lord for length of days.
O loving and dear St. Jude / look aside from my unworthiness, / and look only to the mercy and the love of Jesus / and please take to God’s heart this intention for which I pray. I do promise that I will encourage others to seek your aid /and I will do all that I can to tell others how great and good you are. With, this Faith and with this Hope, / I place myself in your hands through Jesus Christ Our Lord, Amen.
O Heavenly Father / please place your healing hand upon all who make this novena; / and for the glory of your name, /hear and answer our prayer. Amen.
