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 so enjoy her blessed presence in the life to come.
O Mother of Good Counsel, patroness of the Council of Catholic Women, intercede for us, that we may be wise, courageous, and loving leaders and members of the Church.
May the Holy Spirit fill us with reverence for God’s creation and compassion for all God’s children.
Help us, dear mother, to know the mind and heart of Jesus, your son.
Mother of Good Counsel, guide us in our meetings and our projects. May our work ease the difficulties of this life for others and make known the reign of God.
May God’s gifts of faith and living hope give purpose and joy to our lives here and prepare us for the fullness of the world to come.Amen.
