Prayer to St. Joseph for the Unemployed

O Saint Joseph, we pray to you this day asking for your intercession to Almighty God for those who are out of work; for those who want to earn their living or support their families.

You who are the patron saint of workers, grant that unemployment may vanish from our ranks; that all those who are ready to work may put their strength and abilities in serving their communities and earn a just salary.

You are the patron of families;  do not let those who have children to support and raise lack the necessary means to do so.  Have compassion on our brothers and sisters held down in unemployment, underemployment or even poverty especially because of sickness or social disorders.  Help our political and industry leaders find new and just solutions to the country’s unemployment problems.  May each and every person have the joy of contributing, according to their abilities, to the common good of all by an honorable livelihood.

Grant that we may all share together in the abundant goods God has given us and that we may always help to serve those who are especially in need and have less than we have and we ask this all in Your name,
Amen.
