which is spiritual, psychological and physical.

to sober and abstain from alcoholic drink.

Prayer for Marital Difficulty

Prayer for Marital Difficulty

Saint Jude, we have problems with our marriage.

Beg Almighty God to give us the light to see 

ourselves and each other as we are really are.

Help us to grow daily in self-knowledge and

mutual love, while at the same time developing 

our potential to love and be loved.

Help us, Saint Jude, to see and root our every

manifestation of selfishness and childish self seeking-

those hidden enemies of love and maturity.

Thus learning to love and being filled with love,

we may compliment each other 

the remaining days of our married life.

Prayer for Special Request

Prayer for Special Request

St. Jude, glorious apostle, faithful servant and friend of Jesus,

the name of the traitor has caused you to be forgotten by many.

But the Church honors and invokes you universally as the patron of difficult 

and desperate cases. 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 was almost despaired of.

Come to my assistance in this great need that I may receive

the consolation and help of heaven in all my necessities, tribulations and 

sufferings, particularly -- (here make your request) -- and that I may praise

God with you and all the elect throughout all eternity.

I promise you, O blessed St. Jude, to be ever mindful of this great favor.

I will honor you as my special and powerful patron and encourage devotion to you.

St Jude, pray for us and for all who honor and invoke your aid.

PRAYER IS THE MASTER KEY

THAT OPEN ALL DOORS.

John 10:27

John 10:27

"My sheep hear my voice and I know them and they follow me"

- Jesus

Don't Quit

Don't Quit

When things go wrong as they sometimes will,

When the road you're trudging seem all up hill,

When the funds are low and debts are high

And you want to smile but you have to sigh,

When care is pressing you down a bit.

Rest, if you must, but don't you quit

Life is queer with its twist and turns,

As everyone of us sometimes learns,

And many failures turns about

When me might won had he stuck it out;

Don't give up though the pace seems slow-

You may succeed with another blow

Success is failure turned inside out -

The silver tints of cloud and doubts,

And you can never can tell how close you are, 

It may be near when it seems so far;

So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit -

It's when things seem worst that you must not quit.

Prayer to St. Jude for Healing

Prayer to St. Jude for Healing

Most Holy Apostle St. Jude,

I place myself into your care.

Pray for me; help me remember that

I am not alone in my struggle

Please join me in asking God 

to send me hope in my sorrows,

courage in my fear, and healing

in the midst of my challenges

Please ask our loving God to fill me

with the grace to accept whatever

my life holds and to strengthen my faith

in His healing power.

Thank you St. Jude,

for the promise of hope to hold to

all who believe, and inspire me to give 

the gift of hope to others.

Amen.
