We turn to you, our Mother of Good Counsel, as we seek to imitate your faith-filled life. May we be led by the same wis-dom which God sent forth from heaven to guide you along unfamiliar paths and through challenging decisions. Inter-cede for us with your Son as we go forward in joyful hope, seeking to be united in mind and heart on our way to God. O virgin Mother of Good Counsel, hear our prayer as we look for guidance. Pray for us to our loving and merciful Fa-ther, to your Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the Holy Spirit, giver of all wisdom, one God forever and ever.
-Amen
