Well hello!
Before composing this question I did some searching on this topic and found a few related replies. But I wanted to get some further thoughts.
I pray the St. Jude novena quite frequently and I’ve found success; I try to assume novenas are no “guarantee” of anything other than an answer, and that answer might not be what I initially assume to be what’s best for me.
I’m in a may-soon-be-tight job situation, so I wanted to pray for help in finding a new job. I did the Google thing and found some novenas to our friend St. Joseph. Interestingly, I also found this curious thing called a “St. Cajetan Package” here:
cukierski.net/employment.shtml
A few people have responded to questions about some of the stuff offered by Cukierski, mainly that the sacramentals are mostly legit.
The “St. Cajetan Package” doesn’t guarantee success. The page says that “millions” have found work due to St. Cajetan’s intercession, and doesn’t seem to claim that this package would necessarily help you. Still, I found it a bit, well, weird.
Am I overreacting, or is it the equivalent of selling, say, a picture of the Sacred Heart of Jesus because it could helps one focus while praying, etc.
So…what say you about this and the other relics/sacramentals? Also, anyone know much about St. Cajetan and his assistance in this regard?
