Our Lady of Good Counsel
Feast Day: April 26
Our Lady of Good Counsel is the title given to the Blessed Virgin Mary after a miraculous painting. Tradition has it that during celebrations on the feast of St. Mark, in 1467, in Genazzano, Italy, a cloud descended on an unfinished wall of the church of Santa Maria, amid “sweet music.” When it dissipated an image of Our Lady appeared; 18” square, no thicker than an eggshell, suspended in the air. Many pilgrims visit the church including Popes UrbanVII, Pius IX, Leo XIII, Saints Aloysius Gonzaga, Alphonsus Liguori and John Bosco. Miracles continue to occur, even today.

Saint Mark is one of the Gospel writers and a member of the tribe of Levi. He is believed to be "John Mark” in the Acts of the Apostles and the cousin of St. Barnabas. They joined St. Paul on the first mission to Antioch in 44AD. Mark was St. Paul’s “trusted companion” especially when Paul was imprisoned in Rome. St. Mark died a martyr in Alexandria and his relics are enshrined at the Cathedral of St. Mark in Venice.
