Saint Jude has helped my son in so many ways, the latest being a new job he needed to help take care of his family. I am so very grateful for his help.  It is comforting to know that he will be there for me and my family. Thank you, thank you, Saint Jude! CJL, NJ

Most Holy apostle St Jude, Thank you for hearing my desperate prayers. I prayed to you with everything I had. I poured my heart and soul into
my Novena to you, begging for the healing of my marriage so that my family could be together again. I know you heard me and for a while it seemed as though my prayers were answered. But now after only a couple of weeks my husband has left our home once again because he is unhappy.  I'm not sure if he will ever return. He is my one true Love and I am devastated. I will continue to pray for his return, not just physically, but on an emotional and spiritual level as well. Please return to me the man I married 5 years ago,who loved respected and adored me.  St jude please help stop all the negative influences of his much younger friends as well. Please let him realize the love  and commitment he giving up to be with these people.

Thank you, St. Jude for helping me through difficult times. It was hard for me to see the light at that time, and I never thought I would be able to pull through and heal emotionally. You have helped me tremendously, helped to guide me onto the right path and now I am so much better. Thank you, St. Jude, for your guidance, love and support. I am forever grateful. I love you. Nicole, Washington, DC

In early June, my father developed a serious infection in his one good eye; immediate surgery was done and deemed a success.  But, his eyesight didn't recover...not even a little.  He subsequently had a second surgery, to address his macular degeneration.  Still, no sight.  Essentially, he was unable to see anything but shapes and colors; the prognosis was "it will take 6 weeks to 6 months, IF you are to recover your sight at all."  Not very encouraging for a person in their mid-80's...  I prayed the 9-day novena to St. Jude...on the 10th day, my father first noticed some improvement - he could read large print on magazine covers.  Given where he was just days earlier, this was unbelievable to us/him!  I want to thank St. Jude for interceding here on my father's behalf.  A friend of St. Jude's...PR, Powell, OH

Thank you St Jude for prayers answered.  I have been praying faithfully for Kevin's and my relationship to be reunited and grow in mutual love.  On the 6th day of praying the Novena, I received a call from Kevin where we discussed trying to work things out.  I thank you for my answered prayer and continue to pray to you for the healing of our relationship as the hurts we both have from past relationships cause us to be fearful of loving again.  Please help us to let go of the past and to strengthen our faith in our Lord God and in each other.  Praise God!  Tricia, Iowa
