Hi all. I need your prayers, please. Tomorrow morning, I am doing a major search for a job. I made a list of places to go that I have either applied to online or need to apply in person. I have begun a 30 day novena to St. Joseph for his guidance and intercession in my quest for suitable employment. I am not being picky at all. I’m considering almost all jobs–except heavy labor and teaching–in hopes that being open to all fields, I will find a job quicker in order to pay off my debts and search out God’s will for my life in religious orders. I want to make more visits to several cloisters, but I have no money.

Please join me in praying for St. Joseph to intercede for me. I have a blessed St. Joseph medal that I will be wearing tomorrow as I make my search as a special act of devotion to the Patriarch of the Holy Family. 😉 May Our Lady guide me as well. 😃
 
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 our death.
Amen
 
Dear Lord, please help the unemployed to find the right jobs at the time You know is perfet for Your plan. Amen. St. Joseph, pray for the unemployed. Amen.
 
Praying for you and your intentions.
Dear Jesus, help her to find suitable employment to pay her debts and guide her along the right path to do Your will with her life.
St. Joseph pray for her and help her to find suitable employment.
Hail Mary, full of grace the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou amongst 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 our death. 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.

You are in my Prayers. God Bless.

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.
 
I am also looking for a new job (and will consider teaching :p). I am saying a novena to St Josemaria Escriva and the Efficacious Novena to the Sacred Heart as a perpetual novena. I will include you in my prayers.
 
Employment is a big issue for my hubby as well. It’s been going on for years. We struggle so much. Please keep up your prayers and I will include you in my prayers. God love you and strengthen you.
 
To Our Mother of Perpetual Help

Realizing, dearest Mother of Perpetual Help, that thou art our perpetual help not only in spiritual but also in temporal necessities, we approach thee with submissive and humble hearts because we have a child-like and affectionate trust in thy power and goodness, beseeching thee to assist us in our present financial worry. Owing to untoward circumstances which have arisen in our lives, we are in dire want and pecuniary embarrassment, being unable to meet our honest debts.

We are not asking, dearest Mother of Perpetual Help, for wealth, if the possession of it is not in accordance with the holy will of God. We merely beg of thee that assistance which will enable us to satisfy our most pressing obligations.

We believe, Dear Mother of God, that thou art the Queen of heaven and earth, and as such, the instrument and special dispenser of thy divine Son’s graces; that thou hast acquired by virtue of thy wonderful dignity, a sweet jurisdiction over all creation. We believe that thou art not only rich and bountiful, but extremely kind and generous to all thy loving and devoted children. We plead with thee, therefore, dear Mother, to obtain for us the help we so urgently need in our present financial difficulty. We thank thee, dear Lady of Perpetual Help, and promise to publish far and near, the glories of thy miraculous picture. Amen.

Dear Lord Jesus Christ, You wanted all who are weary to come to You for support. Lord, I am worn out by my inability to find wage-earning work.
Day after day, my worry and fear grows as the rejections of my applications mount. I am able and willing to work—but I cannot find a worthwhile job.
Please help me to obtain one soon so that I can support myself and my family
in a decent way.

However, if it is your will that I wait longer, enable me to worry less
and to be able to take advantage of the time available to get closer to You.
Let me realize that there are other ways to bring about your kingdom on earth
besides salaried work. Help me to make use of them for the time being
so that I may continue to grow as a person for your greater glory. Amen.

Dear St. Joseph, you were yourself once faced with the responsibility of providing the necessities of life for Jesus and Mary. Look down with fatherly compassion upon me in my anxiety over my present inability to support my family. Please help me to find gainful employment very soon, so that this heavy burden of concern will be lifted from my heart and that I am soon able to provide for those whom God has entrusted to my care. Help us to guard against bitterness and discouragement, so that we may emerge from this trial spiritually enriched and with even greater blessings from God. Amen.

Our Mother of Perpetual Help & St. Joseph, please hear CarmeliteGirl25’s Prayers. She is in need of a decent job to pay off her debts so she can continue the Vocation that you call her too.

I Pray also for all who have recently lost their jobs, quit their jobs, for those unemployed seeking a job. Amen.
 
I just wanted to let you know that I am still praying for you and your intentions as well.

Perhaps this might help you out:

Dear St. Joseph, patron saint of workers, we ask that you ask but one favour of God, that Carmelitegirl find employment, fullfillment and enjoyment in all her workings for you, Lord, that Carmelitegirl be able to service the cloisters and pray for all who are in need of the Lord’s help. St. Joseph we ask that your petitions for the requests Carmelitegirl has asked be granted through Jesus Christ, our Lord, Amen.

Still holding you in my thoughts and prayers.
StarMaiden, I am happy to see your post. If you want to contact me, feel free. 😉

As for the rest of you! Thank you all for your prayers! As of yet, I do not have a job, but I am still looking, and I have an orientation with the Vocational Services department on Thursday (13th). I received their brochure today and it looks promising. They offer support for those who have been out of work for a while, and help job searches. Keep those prayers coming! I’ll return them to you when I pray the Chaplet of Divine Mercy. 🙂 God bless!
 
I ask St Therese’s family to pray for you and your needs and intentions.
