Today, as our nation celebrates Labor Day, we pray for all workers. Through their work, may they recognize the dignity bestowed on them by God and build a more just society. Join me in praying that our society protect the dignity of each worker and for those who struggle because of lack of employment or unfair wages – may they be blessed by God with lives of food security and the shelter of a home. St. Joseph, patron saint of fathers, families and workers, protect us always and guide us through our work in service of one another and the greater good!
