Saint Jude (feast
day: October 28) was one of the original apostles and is also known
as Thaddeus. He is the author of the canonical epistle and describes
himself as Jude, the servant of Jesus Christ and brother of James the
Less. In the year 62AD Jude assisted in the election of James as
bishop of Jerusalem. He then left to spread the Word of Christ to
Persia and suffered marytdom in Armenia. In time St. Jude came to be
regarded as the special parton of “hopeless cases.”
