Saint of the week · the week of 25 October
Saints Simon and Jude
two of Jesus’ twelve apostles · feast day 28 October
Simon and Jude were two of the twelve apostles, Jesus’ special friends. They listened to Him, walked with Him and saw Him alive again after Easter. Then they travelled to faraway lands to tell everyone the Good News about Jesus. Jude wrote a short letter that is in the Bible, telling Christians to keep their faith strong. Many people ask Saint Jude to pray for them when things feel very hard, because nothing is too hard for God.
Did you know? Saint Jude’s letter is one of the shortest books in the whole Bible: just one page!
Be like Simon and Jude: Tell a friend one thing you love about Jesus.
Saint Simon and Saint Jude, pray for us!
