"Healing from autism My daughter was born with severe autism. She was still unable to speak at the age of three and a half. I turned to Saint Jude for his help and went to Holy Communion for eighteen consecutive Saturdays in his honour, to obtain a healing of the autism. At the end of the eighteen weeks my daughter's condition became even worse. I was in a panic. I pulled myself back together and continued to pray to Saint Jude and to other saints for a healing. My daughter learnt to speak well and has made such astounding progress that people find it hard to believe when I tell them that she was born with autism.Saint Jude is the patron saint of hopeless cases. His feast day is celebrated on October 28. (I am from Australia) I have put my testimony in a free online book entitled: Help from Heaven (Answers to Prayer) which you can read at: http://missionbell.homestead.com/HelpFromHeavenBook.html " - Mary Ann Matulis, Housewife

"Dear St. Jude, I have found a friend in you. A true friend never leaves you, whether in good or bad times, and that's how I have felt about you...though sometimes I have not been clinging on to you at all times, you were there for me. You have managed to get us the papers we need to settle our house and have always believed you were the one that helped us through and through. Even the money we needed to pay everything...and I keep on believing that until now you are always here to guide and help me and my family always. Thank you so much. I love you St. Jude!" - Anne, wife and mom

"It's an answered prayer again. Through St. Jude's intercession, I will finally graduate this April. Thank you so much St. Jude!!!To GOD be the glory! There's nothing impossible with GOD. "Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours." (Mark 11:24) This verse from the bible really help me in my journey when I felt hopeless and helpless waiting for the result of my exams. God is indeed very faithful to His words. I praise and thank Him for everything. I owe Him everything in my life. St. Jude has been a wonderful intercessor. He really help me to become closer to GOD. The journey I've been through taught me to become patient, faithful to my words and to surrender everything to GOD. St. Jude, until the end of my life I will always remember your kindness. Thank you so much. " - Divine, student

"My self-worth can effortlessly be consumed by entrance exams. Almost four years ago, I didnt make it to the school of my choice. In actual fact, I was reconsidered to a University thats far and wide from my home. A brother/friend (from there) introduced me to St. Jude, and from his experience he thought me how to implore for the Saints intercession. I usually asked St. Judes help for my loved ones and He never neglected me. When my time arrived (time to live my dreambut I have to pass an entrance exam first), I prayed deeply to St. Jude to grant me my admission to the Graduate School of my choice. I prayed to Him everyday for six months, and whatever delay in the release of results made me cling more to my Patron. My love and trust for Him and for the Lord blossomed as my daily sacrifices grew. If months ago I was offering sacrifices, charitable works and prayers to Him, now and forever I am/will be reciting my thanksgiving prayers. Thank you so much St. Jude! I love you! -Gel" - Angeli Francis S. Rivera, Student, DLSU

"last year (2009) i happened to drop by st jude church to say a little prayer. i was a skeptic, i did not believe much in novenas, but since i had noting else to do and prayer seeed to be the only thing to do inside the church anyway, i gave it a shot. I prayed to st jude for a change of heart, to believe even when i cannot measure the effects of his presence in my life. . . there were no bright lights, nor soft whispers, but i did believe there was a miracle that happened inside me with just one visit. I frequented coming to church more often and valued every mass celebration. this may sound too small a miracle but i do believe St Jude paved the wat for me to reconcile with ,myself and my God. One very significant event though, helped me realize a lot about ,myself is through reading spiritual materials which were offered by religious sisters in blue. It encouraged me to search deep into my soul for answers even to trivial questions that disturb me. I bought two books and wanted to buy some more to give to my friends but unfortunately I have not seen them anymore. the logo of the book is Paulines, thats all I can remember. If I have been helped a lot I sure believe that other "skeptics" like me might be encouraged for a change of heart when they have access to good spiritual books. Thank you St, Jude for enlightening me, now there is more meaning to the Mass for me. + angel" - angel, marketing manager

"this is the very first time i will be writing a testimonial. and very fitting since it is a testimonial of how powerful st. jude's intercessions have been! i am a devotee of st jude since my high school days - always asking for him to help me pass all my exams. my very 1st 'miracle' from st jude came when he helped us get our visas to migrate to canada - against all odds! time and again, i have asked for st. jude's intercession. it was through his intercession too that we got our very 1st house. he helped me with my breast operation - cancer-free - praise our Lord Jesus, Mama Mary and God the Father! just recently, i had gone to him for help so that my husband will have a job again! and it was only on the 2nd day that i had been going to his shrine in toronto that he answered my prayer. my husband has another job interview and i will pray to st jude again for help in getting him a better job. i had been feeling so helpless and hopeless but i know that he wont let me down. and so, i write this testimonial so that anyone feeling alone and helpless will find comfort that st jude will help them in getting help from heaven. our faith in st jude, mama mary, our lord jesus christ and God the Father will make all things possible - in God's time!

"I prayed this novena for my fiance to get a job. The first time I prayed we heard from a prospective employer on the 4th day. However he did not contact us again for about two months and I almost gave up hope.I started praying the novena again and on the 7th day, the same employer from two months ago, called us and my fiance got the job. Thank you St. Jude for interceding my prayers and for teaching me to be patient." - Eve, healthcare

"St. Jude, Mother Mary and Lord Jesus Christ, all praise, honor and glory be with you forever! =) Thank you for granting my prayers! =) " - Therese, Team Manager
