Prayer to San Judas Tadeo
Oh blessed San Judas Tadeo,
friend, relative and apostle of the divine teacher,
Jesus Christ our Savior;
I know that God is the source of everything good
and the only one that makes miracles.
But I also know that God manifests
His power and his mercy
through the intercession of their saints.
Glorious San Judas Tadeo,
You who are so close to God
and that you are the lawyer of difficult cases
And humanly impossible, intercede for me,
Listen to my plea, grant me before Jesus
Our Savior, what I ask.
(In silence the request is made)
Get me above all grace
that one day he can be in the kingdom of
The skies in your company
and praise and thank God for all eternity.
Amen.
