What does St. Jude do to help?

St. Jude is called the patron saint of hopeless cases, primarily because people tended to confuse him with Judas Iscariot. If you have a problem that seems to have no hope of being resolved, you can pray to St. Jude and ask him to intercede (pray) for you before God. He is closer to God and, because he is already in Heaven, he knows how to pray much better than we do here on earth.
