Missionary Society of St. Columban USLord, we thank you for St Joseph
and for his role within the history of salvation.
We know little about what Jesus did
before he began his public ministry
but it is easy to imagine that he worked
with his father.
We ask that you bless all workers
and we pray that workers throughout the world
be given a fair wage, reasonable hours
and good working conditions.
Amen.
— By a Columban Missionary
