Prayer for Employment
God, our Father, I turn to you seeking your divine help and guidance as I look for suitable employment. I need your wisdom to guide my footsteps along the right path, and to lead me to find the proper things to say and do in this quest. I wish to use the gifts and talents you have given me, but I need the opportunity to do so with gainful employment. Do not abandon me, dear Father, in this search, but rather grant me this favor I seek so that I may return to you with praise and thanksgiving for your gracious assistance. Grant this through Christ, our Lord. Amen.

A Prayer For Those Who Can’t Find A Job
Dear Lord, You wanted all who are weary to come to You for support. Lord, I am worn out by my inability to find a wage-earning job. Day after day, my worries and fears grow as the rejections of my applications mount. I am able and willing to work, but I cannot find a good job. Please help me to get one soon so that I can decently support myself and my family.

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.

Prayer to St. Cajetan (Unemployed)
St. Cajetan, you lovingly provided financial assistance to the unemployed and often went without in order to bless the families of the unemployed with the basic necessities of life. Pray dear saint for all those who are currently unemployed and seeking employment, especially (name of the person). Intercede for them now before the Lord and beg Him to not only provide for their immediate needs but to lead them to gainful employment so that they can be financially secure. Inspired by your example, may we be kind, generous, and helpful in every way to those we know who are seeking employment. Thank you St. Cajetan for your example and your unceasing prayers. Amen.
