National Shrine of Saint Jude Thaddeus - San Miguel, Manila City (Archdiocese of Manila)

The Church was founded October 13, 1954 and was opened October 23, 1960. The National Shrine of Saint Jude Thaddeus or Saint Jude Parish is one of three Chinese parishes established by the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Manila in Metro Manila, Philippines. The shrine holds its novena service every Thursday to Saint Jude, whose traditional color is green. The shrine is popular with students and those reviewing for board examinations, as Jude Thaddeus is considered the patron saint of hopeless cases. The shrine is located at J.P. Laurel Street, San Miguel, Manila which is inside the Malacañang Palace Complex. Why is St. Jude Thaddeus important?Jude is the Patron Saint of Hope and impossible causes and one of Jesus' original twelve Apostles. He preached the Gospel with great passion, often in the most difficult circumstances. Through the power of the Holy Spirit, he made profound differences in people's lives as he offered them the Word of God.This church has been one of my favorite place to pray and talk to God. I hope you can also visit the church and say some prayers. Take your trip here whenever you are in Manila.
