    The worker prays to Jesus Christ offering up their work, hopes, struggles, joys and sorrows. They ask for the grace to think, work and live like Jesus, to love God with all their heart and serve Him with all their strength. The worker acknowledges Jesus as a carpenter who worked as they do, and asks to work as He did so that everything they do will glorify God and benefit others. They pray for God's kingdom to come in their places of work and homes. The worker asks for a living wage to keep God's law and earn it without envy or injustice, and for God's refreshing love to be sent to those who labor and are burdened. They pray to never sin against God
