Prayer to St. Anthony of Padua for Employment
Blessed St. Anthony, in life you were ever mindful
of the needs of the afflicted, consuming yourself in
the service of God and for the good of souls. You
were the enemy of idleness and a tireless worker in
the vineyard of the Lord.
Beseech God to grant Mike a suitable job, which
may procure him a decent livelihood, and be, at
the same time, a means of personal sanctification
and of service to others. In Jesus’ name, amen.
Our Father, Who art in heaven,
Hallowed be Thy Name.
Thy Kingdom come.
Thy Will be done, on earth as it is in Heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil. Amen.
Hail Mary,
Full of Grace,
The Lord is with thee.
Blessed art thou among women,
and blessed is the fruit
of thy womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary, Mother of God,
pray for us sinners now,
and at the hour of death. Amen.
Glory be to the Father,
and to the Son,
and to the Holy Spirit.
As it was in the beginning,
is now, and ever shall be,
world without end. Amen.
