A Prayer for the Feast Day of Saint Simon and Saint Jude

O God, we thank thee for the glorious company of the apostles, and especially on this day for Simon and Jude; and we pray thee that, as they were faithful and zealous in their mission, so we may with ardent devotion make known the love and mercy of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, who liveth and reigneth with thee and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever.

SS. Simon and Jude, Apostles and MartyrsSimon, whom St. Matthew calls the Cananean to distinguish him from St. Peter, preached in Egypt. Jude, surnamed Thaddeus, preached in Mesopotamia and wrote a short Epistle. Both suffered martyrdom in Persia in the first century. https://t.co/YrELoXq8re
