His feast day is October 28.

He is the patron saint of Lost Causes.

His greatest miracle was the curing of King Abagar's leprosy.

I chose this saint because he is the patron saint of lost causes. The reason I chose him is because if we get put in tough situations and we don't know what to do, I can pray to him and he can help me get out of that sticky situation. Another reason I chose this saint is because my grandpa loves him very much and my grandpa always teaches me about him. He gave me my first Saint Jude necklace in second grade for my First Communion. I have always known about Saint Jude and I wanted to learn more.
