through the National Shrine. Jude League members receive devotional materials throughout the year for prayer and reflection as part of their spiritual journey. Building Strong Catholic Communities: Through our parish and community ministries, we tackle the rough realities of the poor in the U.S.—including hunger, poverty, violence, housing, parenting, and education—always with the people. We are s

trengthened in our work by the inspiration and power of God’s word. Support for Seminarians: We pray always for vocations to the priesthood and brotherhood, and are grateful that our seminaries are filling with young men who have taken a leap of faith to dedicate their lives in service to the Church and those in need. They are focused on working to become leaders of our faith and blessings to the future of the Church.

St. Jude, often considered the forgotten saint, is hardly mentioned in Scripture; even in books about saints, he usually has the shortest entry. Like Jude "the invisible," we all face moments of feeling overlooked in life. St. Jude empathizes with our loneliness and despair, making him a comforting figure to turn to when we feel forgotten, even by God.

Check out the story of St. Jude and the establishment of the National Shrine as told in Jude: The Forgotten Saint, a comic book published by the National Shrine of St. Jude in 1954: http://bit.ly/shrinehistorycomic
