Prayer of Our Lady of Good Council

O Lord of Heavenly Wisdom,

who has given us your own Mother Mary to be our guide and counselor in this life,

grant that in all things that we may have the grace to seek her maternal instruction

and to profit by it in humility and love. 

O Mother of Good Council, Patroness of the National Council 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 do or say,

be filled with the same love of God and neighbor

that flows from your own immaculate heart.

​

Amen
