PRAYER OF THE WORKER Let us pray for a week of work well done, satisfying, and supporting. Let us pray for all who work in our city, our nation, our world: for those in factories and laboratories and schools and hospitals, for those who work in offices, streets, homes and on the farm; for those who lie in our gutters and those who reach for us for alms. Father, make us creative, purposeful workers. Teach us to sweat over our tasks and to share all we earn and become through our work, just as your Son Jesus did. Amen
