St Jude.. patron Saint of the impossible…., why.. when I went to St Jude shrine in Baltimore.. it gave reason why St Jude is patron Saint of the impossible…..

In the Gospel when they list the Apostles.. Jude is often translated Judas.. so when Jude name comes up.. it is often Judas.. not the Apostles that betrayed Jesus… imagine Good Holy Jude always having to answer the question.. are you the one who betrayed Jesus ‘No’.

Jude suffered from having a bad name.. he had the same name as Judas who betrayed Jesus…this was at least reason given for Jude and impossible cases at His Shrine in Baltimore.. It sounded good to me.. so of all the Apostles poor St Jude was often overlooked.. bad PR with his name.. now that I think about it Simon is also connected to Jude they were brothers.. so Simon would have to say.. yes I was an apostle but not the Simon who is the Rock.. as Jude was overlooked.. He probably prayed harder than most in Heaven when people prayed to him.. and St Jude helped in hopeless causes..

‘ Hey Jude make a sad song and make it better.’Beatles
