This is a beautiful Our Lady of Good Counsel medal, featuring a high relief of Holy Mary with the Infant Jesus on the obverse.. On the reverse, a detailed engraving of St. Augustine of Hippo , featuring the Saint with his book and quill and his bishop's miter. St. Augustine is a doctor of the church, and is the patron of printers, brewers and theologians. Our Lady of Good Counsel is associated with the Augustinians, and at the Augustinian Spirituality website, you will find this prayer which they recite daily: 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 Wisdom, which God sent forth from Heaven to guide you along unfamiliar paths and through challenging decisions. Keep us in mind and heart, as we go forward in joyful hope toward the grace-filled freedom that Saint Augustine recommends. O Virgin Mother of Good Counsel, hear our prayer, as we look to you for guidance. Pray for us to our loving and merciful Father, to your Son, Our Lord Jesus the Christ, and to the Holy Spirit, giver of all Wisdom, one God forever and ever. Amen.
