Rosario for those seeking work

We prayed with Mary, who lived from the work of Nazareth.

meditated rosary

Looking for work, or supporting the family with an effort that seems not to be enough, can fill the heart with restlessness. The Rosary invites us to bring this concern to Mary, who knew the simple and laborious life of Nazareth. Praying it calmly, we learn to trust and seek, to have patience in waiting and to sustain hope when the road is long.

Suggested mysteries: Joyful

Spiritual fruit: Trust, patience, hope and dignity

When I pray: In times of search or difficulty at work

How to pray it

Pray the Holy Rosary as usual - sign of the Cross, Creed, and every mystery with his Father, ten Avemarias and Gloria. Before you start, do the initial prayer; in every ten, you welcome the proposed intention; at the end, the final prayer. If you want to pray it guided step by step, enter into Begin the Rosary.

Opening prayer

Holy Mary, who in the home of Nazareth knew the day-to-day work with Joseph and Jesus, I come to you with the concern of those who seek a decent job and those who struggle to bring their own forward. Welcomes this intention and present it to your Son. Hold my trust when the wait is long, give me patience to persevere and keep alive in me the hope that no honest effort will be forgotten of God. Amen.

Mysteries and meditations

Joyful Mysteries — for this intention:

1st mystery - The Annunciation

Mary welcomes the will of God without even knowing the path that is opened to her. He who seeks work learns from her to say yes to the uncertain and to trust that God is ahead.

Intent of this ten: for those who seek work.

2nd mystery - The Visitation

Mary is on her way to serve Isabel. We pray for those who have lost their jobs, so that they will not lack friendly hands or new opportunities in the midst of the test.

Intent of this ten: for those who have lost their job.

3rd mystery - The Birth of Jesus

In the poverty of Bethlehem, the Holy Family trusts God without having everything resolved. We think of those who support their family with effort, sometimes without seeing their sacrifice.

Intent of this ten: for those who support their family with their efforts.

4th mystery - The Presentation in the Temple

Mary and Joseph do the right thing and trust God. We call for those who suffer unfair conditions in their work, so that their dignity is recognized and respected.

Intent of this ten: for those who suffer from unfair working conditions.

5th mystery - The Child Jesus in the Temple

Jesus grows in the workshop of Nazareth, where Joseph teaches him the trade and the value of well done work. We pray for those who give decent employment and treat their workers fairly.

Intent of this ten: for those who offer a decent job.

Closing prayer

Our Mother, we entrust to you the fruit of this Rosary, prayed for by those who seek and need work. Through the intercession of St. Joseph the worker, who sanctified the simple day of the workshop, the serenity of the alcanzus in the waiting and strength not to perish. May the work of each one be a source of dignity, sustenance of his family and service to others. In your hands we put our eagerness. Amen.

When you finish, you can offer this Rosary like a rose to the Virgin in the Rosary Garden.
