Our Lady of Good Counsel Chapel in The Basilica of The Immaculate Conception

This Chapel represents the Albanian Catholics. The painting of Our Mother of Good Counsel is traced to the year 1467 to Genazzano, Italy, a small town thirty miles southeast of Rome. The story of our Lady of Shkodra is in part the story of Albanian Catholicism and was prayed to in Albania's darkest times of foreign occupation and religious persecution.
