I couldn’t find a thread for writing favors received, so I hope no one minds me starting this one, since there may be one out there and I just couldn’t find it.

St. Jude,

Thank you so much for helping me and for favors received. Please continue to intercede for me and my family. You have been a good and trusted friend. Please never give up on me.

Your friend and sister in Christ,
KMP
 
I’ll join you in thanking St. Jude. He has been there for me more than once, and I am always grateful for his intercession.
 
Just saying thanks again to St. Jude for more favors granted!!!

St. Jude, please continue to intercede for us.
 
St. Jude’s intercession in increadible!!! All I can say is that he will never let you down! Thank You Saint Jude!!!
 
Can I ask a question and have it borderline on a thread hijacking?

When I was younger I was told a rumor that if you pray to St. Jude and your request is fulfilled, something else will be taken away. So ever since I was little I’ve been kind of “afraid” of St. Jude prayers and such. Sounds kind of silly, but it still hangs on. Anyone ever heard of this before? I wonder where it came from?

Thanks :o
 
Celia,

I had never heard that about St. Jude before your post, but let me briefly tell you my story and why jaw hit the floor with what you had written. I said a novena to St. Jude to help me with a very bad spell of depression that I was suffering. At about 2:00 a.m. just one day after the completion of my novena I woke up and felt an amazing sense of peace and joy. I knew in an instant that my depression was gone (and has never returned to that extent in 7 years) and I heard an inner voice tell me that my novena was successful. I THEN heard the same voice tell me “When one door opens, another will close.” My depression was indeed gone, but my girlfriend (at the time) broke up with me too, and I haven’t heard from her since. However, I KNEW she was not good for me even when we were dating–very dark personality and a borderine atheist. I was saddened by it nonetheless, but several weeks after that I met the woman who would become my wife. So in the end, it was all good, even though I did experience loss along with my novena. I think that if loss comes with a St. Jude Novena (and I’m not sure that it automatically does) it is something that will bring you closer to Christ in the long run!!!

Well, that’s a good story. At least everything turned out ok in the end! I vaguely remember my dad telling me that my grandmother prayed to St. Jude for help with something and then shortly after that her youngest child, just born, was diagnosed with a heart ailment and died soon after. This is where I first heard the taking something away story. But, it doesn’t seem that a saint of God would do something like that. Maybe it’s more along the lines of what your experience was and my grandmother’s experience was just a sad coincidence. I hope so…but anyway, again I’m glad things worked out well for you. 🙂
 
I would also like to take this opportunity to thank St. Jude for interceding for me so many times. Thank you St. Jude! 🙂
 
oh, how i love st. jude!!! i have promised him, b/c of his answering my prayers, to do whatever i could to try and take his name when/if i become a religious. should i end up marrying, my son will be named jude!
 
Thank you st. Jude, I felt your intercession as well…many, many times…I did not deserve such blessing. Thank you so much!!!
