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.”

This finely detailed statue has been expertly sculpted by Barbara Tortolani, a New England artisan noted for exquisite life-like detail that she portrays in all her creations. The statue is crafted in cold cast resin and hand painted for fine detail resulting in a venerable gift to be always cherished.
