Our Lady of Good Counsel Prayer

O Lord of heavenly wisdom, who has given us your own Mary Mother to be our guide and our counselor in this life, grant that in all things we may have the grace to seek her maternal instruction and to profit by it in humility and love.

O Mother of Good Counsel, Patroness of the National Counsel of Catholic Women, help us to understand and fulfill the mind and will of your Divine Son, Jesus Christ.

Under the blessing of the Father, and by the power of the Holy Spirit, may we be responsible and intelligent daughters of the Church.

May we labor in the spirit of renewal to realize more perfectly the Kingdom of God here below as the only true preparation for our share in the Kingdom of Heaven.

And may we, in all we think or do or say, be filled with the same love God and neighbor that overflows from your own Immaculate Heart.

Prayer for Peace


God of love and mercy, violence and hatred can have no part with you!

Hear our prayers, and grant us peace in our time.

Let all peoples work together to eliminate hatred, violence, prejudice and injustice.

Help us to work together to bring about a just and lasting peace in our world.

We ask this through Jesus Christ, the Prince of Peace.

AMEN
