Prayers to Saint Jude Thaddeus
Prayer to Saint Jude
To be said when problems arise or when one seems to be deprived of all visible help, or for cases almost despaired of.
Most holy Apostle St. Jude, faithful servant and friend of Jesus, the Church honors and invokes you universally as the patron of hopeless cases, of things despaired of. Pray for me, I am so helpless and alone; make use, I implore you, of this particular privilege accorded to you, to bring visible and speedy help, where help is almost despaired of. Come to my assistance in this great need, that I may receive the consolations and succor of Heaven in all my necessities, tribulations and sufferings, particularly (here make your request), so that I may bless God with you and all the elect forever.
I promise you, O blessed St. Jude, to be ever mindful of this great favor, and I will never cease to honor you as my special and powerful patron and to do all in my power to encourage devotion to you. Amen.
Prayer in Grievous Affliction
ST. JUDE THADDEUS, relative of Jesus and Mary, glorious Apostle and Martyr, renowned for thy virtues and miracles, faithful and prompt intercessor for all who honor thee and trust in thee, powerful patron and helper in grievous affliction, I come to thee and entreat thee with all my heart to come to my aid, for thou hast received from God the privilege of assisting with manifest help those who almost despair! Look down upon me: my life is a life of crosses, my days are full of tribulation, and my paths are strewn with thorns---and scarcely one moment passes but is witness of my tears and sighs. My soul is enveloped in darkness, disquietude, discouragement, mistrust---yes, sometimes even a kind of despair preys upon me. Divine Providence seems lost to my sight, and faith seems to falter in my heart. Overwhelmed by these thoughts, I see myself surrounded by a dark cloud. Thou canst not forsake me in this sad plight! I will not depart from thee until thou hast heard me. Oh, hasten to my aid! I will thank God for the graces bestowed upon thee, and will propagate thine honor according to my power. Amen.
Saint Jude is recognized as the patron of difficult or impossible cases. The prayers can be found on Catholic websites.

Message from Jesus: "Pray for Divine Protection"
Through a spiritual locution Loci B. Lenar received on September 14, 2009, Jesus called for everyone to "pray for divine protection." The locution from Jesus was a result of Lenar's visit to the Church of Saint Michael in Netcong, New Jersey.
In June of 2010, Jesus again reminded Lenar of the importance of the message. After prayerful discernment, Lenar said, "The Lord's plan is to mitigate and extinguish violence throughout the world in order to usher in an era of peace."

Cross Appears at Start of Holy Week
By Loci B. Lenar
Lent prepares us through sacrifice and prayer for a spiritual renewal of the soul. However, Easter rejuvenates our lives as God the Father calls us to live by the gospels of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ by transforming us into the resurrected image of His divine son.
Since 2005 and each year following, God the Father has blessed me through His divine son, Jesus Christ, with a miraculous sign of a cross which appears annually on my residence in Mine Hill, NJ. Once again, on Saturday morning, March 27, 2010, a cross surrounded by a shield appeared on my backyard fence. The spiritual presence of God and His angels coincided with the start of Holy Week.

Miraculous Photo: Shield of Archangel Michael
In August of 2005, a luminous cross appeared for the first time on Lenar's backyard fence. The same bright cross has subsequently appeared in 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009 and again on March 27, 2010 with the start of Holy Week.

Signs of Archangel Michael
By Loci B. Lenar
While traveling through the town of Netcong, located in Morris County, NJ, I stopped into The Church of St. Michael to say some prayers and snapped photographs of the beautiful display of stained glass windows and statues. Remarkably, the image of Archangel Michael shows a colorful rainbow that appeared while photographing the statue.

Pray for World Peace
Please pray daily to Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ to change the course of history into an era of peace. Also pray the Holy Rosary and request the Blessed Mother to intercede on behalf of humanity.
During her 1917 apparitions in Fatima, Portugal, Our Lady of Fatima foretold of an era of peace. For information connecting her message to scripture, please read Revelation 20:1-3, A Thousand-year Reign of God's Peace.
Prayer to Mitigate Natural Disasters
God the Father, we join together in prayer and petition heaven for divine intervention to mitigate earthquakes and natural disasters throughout the world.
We invoke the powerful name of Jesus to calm the storms of time and to bring forth a millennium of peace and tranquility.
We pray to the Virgin Mary to interecede on behalf of Humanity for God's hand of mercy to bless us with divine protection.
We ask this and thank thee in the name of Jesus. Amen
I wrote the prayer as a result of the recent earthquake in Haiti. However, Chile has experienced a serious earthquake as well. Please join in prayer for those who lost their lives and for God's mercy to help the families to recovery from the devastation.
The Lord inspired my heart to compose a prayer to help mitigate earthquakes and disasters while I was praying for the victims and familes of Haiti.
Please do not remain complacent. Join together daily by reciting the above prayer or any other prayer that you feel comfortable with.
Thank you very much for your thoughtful consideration.
