Pray With Us During the Solemn Novena to St. Jude

When we gather together to celebrate the Solemn Novena to St. Jude, we are engaging in one of the oldest and most remarkable
traditions of faith. For nine days we offer up our needs, our gratitude, and our hope. We trust in St. Jude to intercede for us,
and in this trust we can take great comfort.

Join Us in Prayer

DAY 1: Saturday, June 15th

Today we center ourselves in peace as we begin nine days of Solemn Novena prayer. St. Jude listens to our prayers, and offers us hope for every intention. Intention to St. Jude: St. Jude, Patron of Hope, on this first day of our journey in prayer together, I offer you all that I carry deep within my heart. My fears at times get the best of me. Calm my heart, so I might better trust in God, who loves and comforts me.

DAY 2: Sunday, June 16th

On this 11th Sunday in Ordinary Time, we honor our fathers and father figures in our lives as we begin the second of nine days of Solemn Novena prayer with a special intention to St. Jude. Intention to St. Jude: Our fathers encourage us with hope in the face of life’s challenges. Lord, bless our fathers with health, wisdom, and faith. May our departed fathers know the peace of heaven. St. Jude, pray for our fathers and all who have shaped our lives.

DAY 3: Monday, June 17th

On this third day of Solemn Novena prayer, we join together in the belief that there is power in praying with and for one another’s petitions. Intention to St. Jude: St. Jude, open my eyes to the beauty and goodness that surround me, so I may see God’s blessings in the events of the week. Inspire my thoughts, words, and actions, so they may all help me grow closer to God.

DAY 4: Tuesday, June 18th

Today we begin the fourth day of the Solemn Novena as we remember the importance that prayer plays in our lives. From prayer one draws the strength needed to meet the challenges of daily life as a committed follower of Jesus Christ, and to be a living sign of the Lord’s loving presence in the world. Intention to St. Jude: St. Jude, give me the strength to be patient with myself, my family, and all those I will meet, so that I may be a living witness of God’s love. Be with me so that I may recognize the opportunities God gives me to reach out to others in His name.

DAY 5: Wednesday, June 19th

Today we begin the fifth of nine days of Solemn Novena prayer with St. Jude as we remember all those for whom we have promised to pray.

DAY 6: Thursday, June 20th

On this sixth of nine days of Solemn Novena prayer, we offer our prayers together. Today I recognize how my Novena makes me stronger in faith and grace.
