St. Jude 59"

This 59-inch St. Jude statue honors St. Jude Thaddeus, Apostle and relative of the Lord, author of the brief New Testament letter that urges believers to 'contend for the faith.' Invoked as patron of hopeless and desperate causes, he is traditionally shown with a flame above his head, recalling Pentecost, and an image of Christ's face on his breast. He shares his feast with St. Simon on October 28.

At 59 inches he suits a shrine in the nave, a church entrance, parish grounds, or a hospital campus, where the anxious and the sick come to ask his help in impossible situations.

Finish options: Monotone and Standard Full-Color. Monotone is offered for interior or exterior placement; Standard Full-Color is offered for exterior placement only. Made from a lightweight, durable resin-fiberglass blend and painted by hand.
