Saint Jude is depicted wearing green because green symbolizes wellness, healing, hope and renewal. Just as in spring when foliage and flowers spring up with renewed life, we turn to St. Jude, our Patron of Hope, in difficult or seemingly hopeless times. During the Great Depression and World War II, thousands of men, women, and children attended novenas at the shrine of Saint Jude causing devotion to the “patron saint of hopeless causes” to spread throughout the country.
Saint Jude Prayer: “Glorious apostle Saint Jude, you are in Heaven contemplating divine peace, absorbed in a thousand delights that constitute your eternal happiness. Hear my prayers for the sick members of the our community and for all who are in need. Amid mental and physical suffering may they find consolation in your healing presence. Show your mercy as you close wounds, cure illness, make broken bodies whole and free downcast spirits. May these special people find lasting health and wellness. Transport me to a place where I can be in your presence to find healing, wholeness, and peace. Amen.”
