Prayer to Our Lady of Good Counsel
God of heavenly wisdom, you have given us Mary,
Mother of Jesus, to be our guide and counselor. Grant
that we may always seek her motherly help in this life
and enjoy her blessed presence in the life to come.
O, Mother of Good Counsel, patroness of the National
Council of Catholic Women, intercede for us, that we
may be wise, courageous leaders of the Church. Help
us, dear mother, to know the mind of Jesus, your Son.
May the Holy Spirit fill us with reverence of God's
creation and compassion for all God's children.
May our labors of love on earth enhance the reign of
God and may God's gifts of faith and living hope
prepare us for the fullness of the world to come. Amen.
